Vendetta Oil on panel, 41 cm x 31 cm, by Hans Heyerdahl (1857–1913) Location unknown |

|
Gritty brushwork and muted
tones heighten the sense of violence and immediacy in this dramatic
scene. The victim recoils, his face turned upward in fear as his arm
lifts in defence, while the attacker looms close with knife raised,
giving a starkly realistic impression of dread, desperation, and
sudden brutality. |
