About this artwork

The 'Samson and Delilah' artwork by Peter Paul Rubens was a piece specifically requested by his buddy Nicolaas II Rockox, who was the mayor of Antwerp and wanted it for his personal collection. The painting captures the dramatic moment when Delilah discovers her boyfriend Samson's supernatural abilities and plots to cut his hair, making him defenseless. Rubens was inspired by the famous Renaissance artist Caravaggio's unique use of light and rich, vibrant colors during a visit to Italy. He then implemented these techniques in his own painting of 'Samson and Delilah'. This print has been expertly color-matched to the original painting and has gotten the thumbs up from the National Gallery. Your purchase will help support the museum's ongoing work.
