Brilliantly transposed from Biblical times to 1940s America, this vivid scene shows Samson and Delilah in a quintessentially domestic setting, complete with pink wallpaper, a portrait of Samson on the wall, and a pet parrot. Note the modern razor and strop that Delilah is using with clear purpose. Perhaps Samson is using the bell and the kitten as early warning devices, should anyone try to remove his locks, but his efforts will be to no avail. The artist, Joseph Bolden, was an illustrator and painter of classical scenes.
