EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Samson carrying away the gates of Gaza" transports us back to biblical times with its powerful depiction. Created by an English School artist in the 19th century, this print showcases Samson's immense strength and determination. The scene captures a pivotal moment from the story of Samson found in the Bible. With his bulging muscles and determined expression, Samson effortlessly carries away the massive gates of Gaza on his shoulders. The weighty iron bars seem insignificant compared to his raw power, emphasizing his superhuman abilities. This engraving is part of The Children's Pictorial Bible collection published by Ward Lock around 1860. It beautifully illustrates one of the most iconic tales from scripture for young readers to engage with and learn from. The image has been digitally cleaned, enhancing its clarity while preserving its historical charm. This allows us to appreciate every intricate detail and admire the skillful craftsmanship that went into creating this work of art. As we gaze upon this print, we are reminded not only of Samson's physical strength but also of our own inner resilience when faced with challenges. It serves as a timeless reminder that even in seemingly impossible situations, determination can lead us to overcome obstacles and achieve greatness. Copyrighted by Look and Learn under English law but out-of-copyright worldwide due to age, this remarkable piece is a testament to both artistic talent and biblical storytelling at its finest.
