was paired with this picture by Rubens between 1722 and 1783
Drager/materiaal
doek, olieverf
Fine plain-weave linen canvas. The support is made up of five pieces of canvas: one large piece of canvas is attached at the top to an addition made up of two pieces of middle-weight canvas joined in the centre; these appear to be original. Above this there is a later addition of approximately 14 cm. The ground layers on this addition and the original are so similar it seems that they are of the same period, although added after the painting was first completed. Whether it was added by Van Dyck cannot be ascertained. Old tack holes are visible along the bottom edge, suggesting that the composition was also extended a little at the bottom; the lower tacking edge became part of the picture surface only after previous lining. The grey ground is visible along the bottom and has been employed for the mid-tones of Samson’s flesh and elsewhere. There are several pentimenti, including the soldier’s lance and Delilah’s proper right shoulder. Glue-paste double-lined. The original tacking edges are still present. There is a mended tear in the proper right leg of the barber. There are several areas of wrinkling caused by drying defects. Previous recorded treatment: 1990–91, relined, S. Bobak; surface cleaned, old retouchings removed, retouched, revarnished, H. Lank (Sophia Plender).
Vorm/maten

the painting seems to have been cropped, as the composition is cramped. A copy in a German private collection also shows more of the composition to the left, bottom and top (Barnes et al. 2004)
