The image is a detailed etching depicting an episode from the biblical story of Samson and Delilah. Central to the composition is the imposing figure of Samson, rendered with dramatic muscularity and intricate details. His long hair, the source of his legendary strength, is being cut by Delilah, a woman seated beside him. Samson appears to be asleep or in a state of defeat. The scene is set under a large tree with sprawling branches, adding depth and a natural element to the composition. Surrounding Samson and Delilah are several armed soldiers, indicating the imminent capture of Samson. The soldiers are equipped with spears, shields, and various forms of armor, showcasing the preparation and anticipation of seizing Samson. In the background, a river flows through a picturesque landscape featuring an arched stone bridge and various architectural structures, including a fortified castle and a town. The rolling hills and distant mountains convey a sense of vastness and grandeur. The etching is rich in texture, with careful line work capturing the folds of clothing, the roughness of the tree bark, and the intricacies of the soldiers' armor. An inscription in Latin is found at the bottom of the image, which translates to: “Where Samson revealed his strength to the greedy harlot, his eyes were plucked out, and he was made a prey to his enemies.” This artwork effectively combines a dramatic narrative with a detailed and dynamic visual composition, highlighting the tragic downfall of the once-mighty Samson due to Delilah's betrayal.

This is an etching or engraving that depicts a complex scene with multiple figures and elements that appear to be from a historical or mythological narrative. On the left side of the image, there is a muscular man wielding a jawbone, seemingly attacking a group of soldiers; this figure may represent the biblical character Samson. The soldiers are wearing armor and some are falling or recoiling from the central figure's attack. In the lower right corner, a seated woman is shown; she appears to be in distress, with one hand to her face. The background features a landscape with a variety of architecture, including buildings and a bridge spanning over a river, suggesting the scene may take place near a town or city. Latin texts are inscribed at the bottom, and there's a reference to "Judicum 16," which likely points to the Book of Judges, chapter 16, from the Bible – the story of Samson. The text may give a clue about the narrative depicted: it relates to the story where Samson is betrayed by Delilah and then captures and defeats his enemies using the jawbone of a donkey. The blindfolded figure might represent Samson after he was blinded. The style and clothing, along with the presence of Latin text, suggest this print could be from the Renaissance or the early modern period, a time when such biblical scenes were commonly depicted in art. The meticulous detail and the technique used indicates it is the work of a skilled artist and engraver.
