    And Then There Were None One example of how the book and the movie are different is‚ in the book the indians were placed in each room and they disappeared after each death happened. In the movie the indians were all in the kitchen and after each death one got broken.

    Saint Agatha from 1635-45; the medium used to paint the portrait was oil and tempera on canvas. This devotional image shows the saint contemplating God while tenderly holding the pincers‚ the instruments of her sufferings through which she achieved her sanctity. The way in which the saint is modeled with soft sfumato (an almost invisible rendering of the transitions from light to shade) and emerges from a dark background is characteristic of Furini’s work. Francessco Furini’s piece Saint Agatha is a
