Kraemer, Ruth S. "Drawings by Gravelot in the Morgan Library." Master drawings, XX (Spring 1982), p. 8, no. 6, reproduced plate 3b.
Gravelot's design is for an engraved headpiece intended for Book I of Le Franc de Pompignon's "Poésies Sacrées" (Paris : Chaubert, 1751). King David, as described in the biblical Books of Samuel, is shown with his harp, rejoicing at the head of a procession bearing the ark to Jerusalem. This is one of two preparatory drawings, along with 1968.15:11, for a headpiece vignette in the "Poésies Sacrées".
