Detail of an Aquamanile in the Form of Samson and the the Lion in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, December 2007


Aquamanile in the Form of Samson and the Lion
Copper alloy
German, late 14th century
The Robert Lehman Collection, Accession # 1975.1.1412
Samson is presented as a bearded, courtly hero dressed in fashionable 14th century attire- a tight fitted jacket, hose, and pointed shoes. Unlike the other examples exhibited nearby, these figures were modeled separately and joined before casting.
Text from the Metropolitan Museum of Art label.
