This image is an etching or engraving that depicts a scene from classical mythology, specifically the confrontation between Perseus and Medusa. At the top of the image is the title "Persee et Meduse." Beneath the characters, there is text in French that provides context about the image. The text translates to something like: "Perseus, son of Jupiter and Danae, having been commanded to kill Medusa the Gorgon, cut off her head, which had snakes instead of hair, and which petrified those who looked at it." In the scene, Perseus is shown from the side, wearing a helmet and holding a sword and a shield. Notably, Perseus is using the shield as a mirror to avoid looking directly at Medusa, which aligns with the mythical account of how he was able to approach and behead Medusa without turning to stone. Medusa, typically depicted with snakes for hair, is shown lying on the ground, presumably already beheaded, although the image does not make this explicitly clear due to the angle and position of the figures. A heart shape followed by the number 9 is visible at the bottom of the text, which might be referencing the sequence or series this image belongs to.

This image appears to be an old illustration accompanied by text in French. The illustration depicts the mythological scene where Perseus has slain Medusa. He is shown holding a shield and Medusa's severed head. Medusa's head, with snakes in place of hair, is held aloft in Perseus's hand. Perseus is wearing armor and a helmet. On the right side of the illustration, a creature, likely Medusa's body, is depicted lying on the ground. Below the illustration, there is a text that reads: "Persée et Meduse Persée fils de Jupiter et de Danaé, ayant reccu commánderment d'aller tuer Meduse la Gorgone, luy coupa la teste qui avoit des serpens au lieu de che- veux, et qui empierroit ceux qui la regardoient." This text translates to: "Perseus and Medusa Perseus, son of Jupiter and Danaë, having received the command to kill Medusa the Gorgon, cut off her head which had serpents instead of hair, and which petrified those who looked at her." At the bottom, there is also the number 9 and the image of a heart, suggesting the image might be part of a playing card or a series of illustrative cards.

The image depicts a scene from the biblical story of Samson and Delilah, as illustrated by the Dutch master Rembrandt van Rijn. The artwork, titled "Samson and Delilah," showcases the moment when Delilah betrays Samson by cutting his hair while he sleeps, rendering him powerless. In the foreground, Delilah is shown with a knife in her hand, poised to cut Samson's hair. Samson, unaware of the impending betrayal, lies asleep on the ground, his hair exposed and vulnerable. The scene is set against a backdrop of darkness and shadow, emphasizing the dramatic and intense nature of the moment. The illustration is rendered in Rembrandt's characteristic style, with bold lines, deep shadows, and a focus on capturing the emotional intensity of the scene. The use of chiaroscuro, a technique that uses strong contrasts between light and dark to create a sense of volume and depth, adds to the dramatic effect of the image. Overall, the image provides a vivid and powerful representation of one of the most famous stories from the Bible, and serves as a testament to Rembrandt's skill as an artist and his ability to convey complex emotions and themes through his work.
