EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Samson betrayed by Delilah into the Hands of the Philistines" transports us back to biblical times. Created by an English School artist in the 19th century, this print captures a pivotal moment from the Book of Judges in the Old Testament. The scene depicts Samson, a legendary figure known for his incredible strength, being deceived and betrayed by Delilah. The intricate details beautifully convey the tension and anguish on Samson's face as he realizes his fate is sealed. With hands bound and surrounded by menacing Philistines, it is clear that his once-mighty power has been compromised. This powerful image serves as a reminder of human vulnerability and how trust can be easily manipulated. It also highlights themes of loyalty, betrayal, and consequences within biblical stories. Originally created as an illustration for Cassells Illustrated Family Bible Superior Edition in 1880, this engraving holds historical significance as part of religious literature. Its inclusion in private collections ensures its preservation for generations to come. As we gaze upon this print from Bridgeman Images' collection curated by Fine Art Finder, we are reminded of the enduring impact that ancient stories continue to have on our collective consciousness.
