"Unveiling the Dark History: Slaughtered Through Time" Step into the past and witness the haunting echoes of "slaughtered, " a word that resonates with tales of brutality, sacrifice, and loss. In this captivating journey through history, we encounter various instances where lives were abruptly cut short and humanity's darkest side was laid bare. Transporting us to the 1920s, we meet a trailblazing woman butcher who defied societal norms in her pursuit of mastery over her craft. Her unwavering determination shattered gender stereotypes as she fearlessly wielded her knife amidst a male-dominated profession. Venturing further back in time, our gaze falls upon "The Carcass of an Ox" painted during the late 1630s. This oil on panel masterpiece immortalizes not only the physicality but also captures the essence of death itself – reminding us that even in life's final moments, beauty can be found. French slaughterhouses or abattoirs from the late 19th century come alive through engravings depicting scenes filled with blood-soaked floors and relentless labor. These images serve as reminders of both human cruelty and society's reliance on these grim establishments for sustenance. In another corner of history's canvas, we are confronted by "Plundering Soldiers. " Painted with vivid strokes on canvas, this artwork exposes how war breeds savagery within men; it reveals their capacity to inflict pain upon innocent souls caught in its destructive path. As our narrative unfolds across continents, Russia becomes a stage for two chilling events depicted through color lithographs. The massacre at Tiflis City Council unveils political turmoil stained by bloodshed while Lenin's old guard executed in Moscow reflects power struggles entwined with betrayal – both leaving indelible marks on Russian history. Turning our attention towards Africa, we bear witness to Ras Mulughieta's warriors' disastrous retreat after the battle of Amba Aradam.
