About this work
Four representations. Top left: a hay wagon drawn by three horses. Top right: people at work on a meadow, where linen is bleached. Bottom left: a storage with beer barrels. A man taps from a barrel under the watchful eye of two other men. Bottom right: Samson ties a torch to the tails of two foxes. He sends the foxes into the grain field of the Philistines, so that the field catches fire.
