The child who is still alive and claimed by both mothers is held by a man with a sword. This man is ordered by Solomon to cut the child in half. This goes too far for one of the women. She begs him on her knees to let her child live, and Solomon points to her as the real mother (1. Kings 3:18). In the foreground many people are watching.
