"The Second Tournament with the Tapestry of Samson and the Lion" (Hollstein 117) is a notable woodcut by Lucas Cranach the Elder, a renowned German Renaissance artist. Created in the 16th century, this work exemplifies Cranach's skill in printmaking and his ability to convey complex narratives through intricate imagery. The woodcut is part of a series that depicts scenes of tournaments, a popular form of entertainment and display of chivalry during the Renaissance period.

In this particular piece, Cranach illustrates a jousting scene with a backdrop featuring the biblical story of Samson slaying the lion, as recounted in the Book of Judges. The juxtaposition of the tournament with the Samson narrative may suggest a parallel between the chivalric valour of the knights and the legendary strength and heroism of the biblical figure. The woodcut is distinguished by its detailed representation of the figures, the dynamic composition, and the use of the tapestry as a storytelling device within the image.

Cranach's work is significant for its contribution to the visual culture of the time, reflecting both the religious sentiments and the secular interests of the society. "The Second Tournament with the Tapestry of Samson and the Lion" not only showcases Cranach's artistic prowess but also provides insight into the cultural and historical context of the period in which it was created.
