This work is a historical representation, representing the Massleberg sculpture. Two people are fighting with spears. Between the men you can see another person, maybe a woman. This drama takes place above a ship with a prow in the shape of an animal head, dating the ship, and probably the whole scene, to 1300-1100 BC. Above this ship there is another ship that has nothing to do with the scene, because it was carved into the rock a few hundred years later. But why did they build a new ship on top of the old one, a few generations later? Did they not see it or did they put it there on purpose? The small distance in the red color on the original see on the last two pictures, where the ships cross is made just so that one can understand that they are looking at two separate images. Support: Wood + 3D effect Size: It is approximately 33.5 cm by 22 cm and approximately 1.08 cm thick Painting: Acrylic Venis matt.
