So in ZWAAN sometimes one wants a picture, but one wouldn’t bother to carve a *new* picture, so they reused them. Here accompanying a discussion of the execution of a queen (*one* queen) is a reused scene that’s clearly from some unrelated classical or even biblical double execution scene. 6/?

Woodcut of two women cowering on the ground as two soldiers in classical dress raise swords about to kill them, in a pose very like an illustration of the Massacre of the Innocents. In the background more classical soldiers keep the crowd away, and a man in the middle seems to be directing the violence. This bears no relation to the text!
