Painting of a banquet table with a woman in white seated at center, surrounded by men in plumed hats and dark clothing, under a dim, warmly lit background.

The Wedding of Samson

A warmly lit banquet unfolds around a long white-draped table, where a richly dressed woman in white sits at the center beneath a tall carved chair. Men in plumed hats and dark cloaks crowd the table, one in the foreground turning away, while a red fabric drapes the lower left.

Un banquete de luz cálida se despliega alrededor de una larga mesa cubierta con mantel blanco, donde una mujer ricamente vestida de blanco se sienta en el centro. Hombres con sombreros emplumados y capas oscuras se agolpan junto a la mesa, uno de ellos de espaldas en primer plano, mientras una tela roja cae en la esquina inferior izquierda.
