About the Item

Depicting Hannah with draping robes holding Samuel in her left arm and placing a donation in a trunk with an engraved Menorah to its front, signed 'F. Andrei. Inv. E. Scolp. Roma 1861'.

In her prayer, Hannah asked God to give her a son, promising in return that she would return the child to the service of the Lord under the guidance of the Shiloh priests. Samuel later became a prophet and foretold the identity of the first two kings of Israel, Saul and David. Every item in Menorah Galleries is accompanied by a Lifetime Certificate of Authenticity and additional documentation and information regarding the individual artifact and its culture.
