"Portrait de Samson" is a painting by the French artist Henri Alexandre Georges Regnault, created in 1868. This work is a testament to Regnault's skill in portraiture and his fascination with Orientalism, a popular theme among European artists in the 19th century. The painting depicts the biblical figure Samson, known for his extraordinary strength and his downfall at the hands of Delilah, who betrayed him by cutting his hair, the source of his power.

Regnault's portrayal of Samson is notable for its dramatic intensity and the meticulous attention to detail, characteristics that are emblematic of the artist's style. The painting captures Samson in a moment of contemplation or perhaps resignation, with his muscular form and the remnants of his once-flowing locks suggesting his past glory and present vulnerability. The use of chiaroscuro, the strong contrast between light and shadow, serves to highlight the physicality and emotional state of the subject.

Henri Regnault, a student of the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris and a winner of the prestigious Prix de Rome, was known for his academic style and the influence of his travels in Spain and North Africa on his work. "Portrait de Samson" reflects the exoticism that Regnault and his contemporaries often sought to capture, blending biblical narrative with a romanticized vision of the East.

The painting is part of Regnault's broader oeuvre, which includes historical and mythological scenes, as well as portraits and studies of animals. His promising career was tragically cut short when he was killed in the Franco-Prussian War at the age of 27. Despite his brief life, Regnault left behind a legacy that continues to be appreciated for its vibrancy, emotional depth, and technical prowess. "Portrait de Samson" remains an important work within the context of 19th-century French painting, exemplifying the era's artistic preoccupations and the personal style of a talented artist taken too soon.
