a fowl death?
I am the farthest thing from being an artist, but if I were, and if I had Biblical events to illustrate, I hope I would find ways like Strozzi did to enrich my works spiritually for the viewers, so that folks like you, John, are blessed by them.
Notice how he used the light-stroke above the man's left shoulder to suggest a cross...and notice his finger is actually pointing, as if to delineate that "you too will someday 'hang'".
Remarkable, really.
