BEHEADED: Classical Paintings of Biblical Decapitation
The period from 1500 to 1700 generated much biblical art. Three narratives focus particularly on decapitation: Salome's demand for the head of John the Baptist, Judith's beheading of Holofernes, and David's beheading of Goliath. This collection of over 80 classical paintings depicts these three stories in all their bloody horror.
