"The Visit of the Queen of Sheba to King Solomon" is a painting by Edward John Poynter, a prominent British artist of the Victorian era. Completed in 1890, the artwork is one of Poynter's most celebrated pieces, showcasing his mastery of historical and biblical themes. The painting depicts the legendary visit of the Queen of Sheba to King Solomon, an event described in the Bible in 1 Kings 10:1-13 and 2 Chronicles 9:1-12. According to these accounts, the Queen of Sheba traveled to Jerusalem to test Solomon's famed wisdom with hard questions and to witness his wealth and grandeur.

Poynter's interpretation of this biblical story is characterized by its meticulous attention to detail and rich use of color. The composition features an opulent setting, with elaborate architectural elements and luxurious textiles that reflect the grandeur of Solomon's court. The Queen of Sheba is portrayed as a regal and dignified figure, surrounded by attendants and bearing gifts, including gold, spices, and precious stones, as described in the biblical narrative. King Solomon is depicted seated on his throne, exuding wisdom and authority.

The painting exemplifies the Victorian fascination with historical and exotic subjects, as well as the era's interest in biblical stories as a source of artistic inspiration. Poynter's work is notable for its academic style, which emphasizes precision, realism, and historical accuracy in the depiction of costumes, settings, and gestures. His training at the Royal Academy of Arts and his exposure to classical art during his travels in Europe are evident in the painting's composition and execution.

"The Visit of the Queen of Sheba to King Solomon" was well-received during Poynter's lifetime and remains an important example of 19th-century British art. The painting is currently housed in the Art Gallery of New South Wales in Sydney, Australia, where it continues to be admired for its artistic and historical significance.
