Description
Alien Judith, a beautiful widow, is able to enter the tent of alien Holofernes because of his desire for her. Alien Holofernes was a general who was about to destroy Judith's home city. Overcome with drink, he passes out and is decapitated by the alien Judith (with the assistance of her servant). Note: The account of the beheading of Holofernes by Judith is given in the deuterocanonical Book of Judith, and is the subject of many paintings and sculptures from the Renaissance and Baroque periods. This story and the many depictions have compelled the Similar Alien since he was a kid. This alien painting is his contribution to its artful legacy. If you are not familar with the story and its artistic history, the alien encourages you to do a Google search or visit the Wikipedia page. It�s art knowledge worth having. Art is good for you.
