About Samson And Delilah
" Samson And Delilah" by Antony van Dyck is a famous painting depicting a mand gruesome death. Van Dyck used several artistic sources for the present painting: one detail of the scene – Samson’s desperately grasping the leg of the traitress – is borrowed from a work by Titian. With this adaptation van Dyck introduced a significant change of interpretation that became characteristic of his work, although it derives from Rubens with regard to its landscape format and the diagonal depiction of Samson’s gestures. Delilah’s dismay at betraying her lover is mingled with grief over her loss. She seems to regret her treacherous act, or at least is painfully moved by its dramatic consequence. Van Dyck “sentimentalises” the event, while Rubens had portrayed Delilah as an unscrupulous seductress and Samson as a captive, entirely occupied with fending off the soldiers. About the Posters
