EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the dramatic moment of Samson breaking the pillars, showcasing John Lawson's exceptional talent in color lithography. The image portrays an iconic biblical scene from the story of Samson, symbolizing strength and power. In this artwork, we witness Samson's immense physical prowess as he single-handedly destroys the mighty pillars that support a grand structure. The intensity of his actions is palpable through Lawson's skillful use of vibrant colors and intricate details. Every muscle in Samson's body seems to be strained with effort as he exerts his force upon the pillars. The composition evokes a sense of awe and wonder, inviting viewers to contemplate the significance behind this legendary tale. It serves as a reminder of both human potential and vulnerability; for even though Samson possesses extraordinary strength, it ultimately leads to his own demise. Lawson's illustration was originally created for "God With Us" by L. L. Weedon, published by Nister around 1880. This timeless piece has been preserved within a private collection but now finds new life through Fine Art Finder. As we gaze upon this remarkable print, we are transported back in time to relive one of history's most enduring stories from the Bible – a testament to humanity’s eternal fascination with tales that explore themes such as heroism, sacrifice, and destiny.
