Samson Slays a Lion 

This dramatic black and white illustration, titled "Samson Slays a Lion", is a powerful piece by French artist Gustave Doré. Doré is renowned for his detailed, often fantastical, depictions of biblical stories. The image depicts the moment from the Book of Judges when Samson, the legendary hero, is shown wrestling with a lion. Doré's use of dramatic lines and strong contrasts creates a sense of movement and power, highlighting the strength and ferocity of both Samson and the lion.
