| Reverse description | A dramatic high-relief depiction of the biblical scene of Samson carrying the gates of Gaza, showing the muscular figure of Samson straining forward across a rugged, undulating landscape, bearing the massive city gates over his shoulder. In the middle ground, the shattered gate posts and pillars of Gaza are visible against a turbulent sky rendered in deep relief, while the fortified walls and towers of the city recede into the right background. The entire composition is executed in an antiqued finish that accentuates the depth and drama of the scene. The legend SAMSON AND THE GATES OF GAZA is inscribed along the lower portion of the field. |
