Samson the Winner by Guido Reni

Samson the Winner by Guido Reni

Painting by Bologna artist Guido Reni “Samson-winner”. The size of the painting is 260 x 221 cm, oil on canvas. The customer of this religious composition on the plots of the Old Testament was Count Zambekkari of Bologna. Samson, the famous biblical hero-judge, was famous for his exploits and battles against the Philistines.

Descended from the tribe of Dan, one of the families of the Israeli people, who was subjected to the most cruel enslavement of the Philistines. Samson grew up in the days of slavish humiliation of his people and from a young age decided to take revenge on the enslavers, which he achieved later on, having made many victories over the Philistines.

The life story of Samson is set out in chapters XIII-XVI of the Book of Judges. Special studies of historical apocrypha about Samson are presented in the works of Veselovsky and Zhdanov, as well as Sumtsov.
