Art of Samson and other historic or mythological figures drugging their pets.

Rules:

TBH, this is an excuse to dig through art archives and find neat works of art to post that are vaguely related to the topic.

Image description: woodblock carved into the form of the Biblical Samson holding open a lion's mouth. The carving is fine and the wood is dark with the ink used in printmaking.

This is the woodblock used to make prints similar to the one previously posted, https://lemmy.sdf.org/post/892435 .
