The Shepherd and his Flock, Narcisse Virgile Diaz de la Peña, oil on canvas
Villagers gather and listen to a man near the center of the composition in a black mask play guitar. A man dressed in all black stands on a small stage. Another man peaks out of a curtain on the right. In the background sits a city in ruins on a grassy hill.
Filatures de la Lys, Frans Masereel, woodcut
A skeleton figure stands on top of a human figure. His foot kicks underneath the human's chin. The human, kneeling on both knees, writhes in pain. In the human's left hand is a knife. In the background is a baby laying upside down.
