Thanks very much, Dan - I had no idea there were so many iterations of this vignette in the Canon of Biblical Art!

"Dia shábháil ar fad anseo!"

"God save all here!"

Excellent! Excellent compilation!
Raphael = perfection, grace, grandeur.
As usual, Dore’ captures powerfully the dramatic intensity of this event. What a creative mind he possessed.

Okay, I got one more comment.

#48 and #62 both show Solomon’s throne with 6 steps and lions, which is correct.

I think #62 is a little closer. There are supposed to be two lions on each step.

Both are anachronistic. Solomon didn’t build the throne until after he built the Temple. It was with his palace. This judgment was after his offering and God’s appearance to him when he was 20. That was before he built the temple.

Of course, talented artists probably spent less time reading the Bible and more on their artwork.
