WPC – Slaughtering of innocents

This famous scene of chaos and death is presented on an old arras in Vatican Museums.

The arras is huge: several meters in length and height. It hangs on the wall of long corridor along with tens of other pieces of art.

In museum there are more stories of battles, pain, fear and chaos. I found them on several paintings and sculptures.

A bit sad in meaning, they also dragged much of my attention to study each single detail of these complex stories. Details that the painters put their hearts into.
