We prominently witness the basics of the Anglo-Saxon culture in regards to religion throughout Judith and The Dream of the Rood. The Anglo-Saxon church believed strongly in the moral idea of martyrs. In Christian terms‚ the theory of a martyr is one who surrenders their life for Jesus Christ‚ willingly suffering death for his honor and teachings.

I have chosen the artwork Judith Decapitating Holofernes by Artemisia Gentileschi in 1620. The reason I chose this painting is because of the graphic nature and the history behind the painting. The painting is 6’ 6 ⅜” x 5’ 3 ¾” oil on canvas located at the Uffizi Gallery in Florence‚ Italy.
