Rembrandt: Dutch Painter And Etcher Of Baroque Era

The Blinding of Samson was created in 1636 by Rembrandt van Rijn, the Dutch painter and etcher of Baroque Era. It was compared to Lady Macbeth written by Shakespeare by the critics because of the exquisite and complex expressions of the characteristics. Samson is the 75th generation Judge of Israel from the Old Testament paintings online. He is the son of Manoh. Samson was taken care by Jehovah when he grew up and became a herculean warrior. He used to kill lions on the road, baffle others with riddles and make the Philistine invaders loss their bearings and annoyed by burning enemies' crops with the torch tied up on the fox's tail. Later, the enemies knew that Samson married Delilah, a Philistine prostitute. So, they bribed Delilah for 1,100 shekel to ask her to tell them about Samson's secret of being herculean in order to kill the Israel national hero. In later posts, we will talk about Fernando Botero paintings.
