EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable biblical tapestry panel depicting the legendary tale of Samson and the Lion. Believed to be from the 17th century, this exquisite piece originates from North Germany, possibly Schleswig Holstein or Hamburg. Crafted with wool and silk, it measures 51x54 cm and is currently held in a private collection. The intricate details of this artwork are truly awe-inspiring. The vibrant green foliage serves as a backdrop for an array of colorful flowers and fruits, creating a visually stunning scene. In the center, we witness Samson's heroic encounter with a ferocious lion, symbolizing his immense strength and courage. The baroque style border surrounding the narrative adds an ornate touch to this textile masterpiece. Delicate angels hover above, seemingly offering divine protection to our hero. This panel not only tells a story but also showcases the skillful artistry of German craftsmen from centuries past. With its decorative foliate motifs and meticulous attention to detail, this tapestry exemplifies both artistic excellence and historical significance. It seamlessly combines elements of botany and natural history within its design while narrating an episode from the Old Testament. Bridgeman Images has beautifully captured every nuance in this photograph without compromising any commercial use restrictions. As we admire this splendid work of art through their lens, we can appreciate its timeless beauty that transcends boundaries of time and culture
