Based on the painting by Peter Paul Rubens(Flemish, 1577 - 1640) with thee same name, the picture featured in this art themed puzzle depicts the meeting of Abigail and David. Nabal of Carmel, Abigail's husband, had refused to pay for the protection that David had provided for his shepherds. Angered, David set off to avenge this misdeed with a large group of soldiers. Seeking his forgiveness, Abigail, is shown kneeling in this painting by Rubens.

Impressed with Abigail David then proposed marriage.
