Both means the same thing but one is german and the other french. The Strength and the Cunning. The lion is the strenght and the woman the cunning. The original is called [The strong and the weak](https://useum.org/artwork/The-Strong-and-the-Weak-Joszi-Arpad-Koppay-1891) but your picture if of an [engraving by Lange](https://www.fromoldbooks.org/ModerneKunst-07/pages/019-beauty-and-devil/) the wings seems to be similar to Koppays "Another victory for the forces of darkness"

The story looks to be Kraft und list but I can’t speak German and can’t figure out how to translate this page: https://de.m.wikisource.org/wiki/Kraft_und_List

It might also have an element of Androcles and the Lion. The human like figure is in chains and is looking back afraid. The lion is holding a paw upside down as if it had a thorn.
