This painting ironically faces the issue of death, in fact the artwork has a nail which passes through the young woman’s left eye. The canvas seems literally skewered by nail, instead of being simply hung. Furthermore, the woman is depicted on a light background so that the colors, in particular the red of her blood, easily stands out. The final objective is to stun or even to shock any spectator of the artwork.
