"Samson Fighting with the Lion" is a woodcut by the German Renaissance artist Albrecht Dürer, created in 1497. This work is part of a series of large woodcuts that Dürer produced during the late 15th and early 16th centuries, which are notable for their intricate detail and innovative compositions. The woodcut depicts the biblical scene from the Book of Judges (14:5-6), where Samson, a figure endowed with extraordinary strength by the Spirit of the Lord, tears apart a lion with his bare hands as he travels to the Philistine town of Timnah.

In Dürer's rendition, the struggle between man and beast is captured with dramatic intensity. Samson's muscular form and determined expression convey his power and ferocity, which is matched by the lion's aggressive stance. The woodcut showcases Dürer's mastery of line and his ability to create a dynamic and expressive narrative within the confines of the medium. The composition is balanced yet dynamic, with the figures of Samson and the lion locked in a central and forceful embrace that draws the viewer's eye.

"Samson Fighting with the Lion" is considered an important work in Dürer's oeuvre, reflecting both his technical skill as a printmaker and his engagement with classical and humanist ideals. The woodcut is also indicative of the artist's interest in depicting the strength and heroism of the human body, themes that recur throughout his artistic career. This piece, along with other works by Dürer, contributed to the development of the Northern Renaissance and the spread of Renaissance ideas north of the Alps.

The woodcut remains an influential image in the history of art and has been widely studied for its stylistic qualities and its place within the context of Dürer's body of work. It is held in numerous collections and has been the subject of extensive art historical research, reflecting its enduring significance as a work of Renaissance art.
