Samson and Delilah

Hans Burgkmair

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image depicts a black-and-white woodcut print of a man and woman in a wooded area. The man lies on the ground, with his head resting on the woman's lap, who sits beside him. Both characters are dressed. He has long hair and a beard, she has long curly hair. The woman holds a cup in one hand. A plate with a cup and food sits on the ground to their left. A brick wall with an archway is visible in the background. Trees and foliage fill the scene. The artist's initials "H-B" are in the bottom-right corner. The title of the piece is "Samson and Delilah".
