16th - 17th Century German Gothic 'Joab and Abner' Fireback / Backsplash

About the Item

16th - 17th century Gothic style German fireback depicting Joab and Abner. After King Saul’s death, his army commander Abner supported Saul’s son Ish-bosheth as king over Israel, while Joab led the army of David, who ruled over Judah. A power struggle broke out between the two sides, and Joab and Abner met at the pool of Gibeon, where a violent clash occurred. During the battle, Joab’s brother Asahel chased after Abner but was killed by him. Later, Abner chose to make peace with David and promised to unite all of Israel under his rule. However, Joab, still seeking revenge for his brother’s death, tricked Abner and killed him—despite David having no involvement in the act. The fireback is made of cast iron and has a black / pewter patina. The fireback is in a good condition and does not have cracks.
