Slaughter of the Innocent, The
Antonella Celada
1994
one-of-a-kind
number 1
edition of 1
"In Rama was a voice heard, lamentation, and weeping, and great mourning, Rachel, weeping for her children, and would not be comforted, because they are not." (S. Matthew 2:18) "The Slaughter of the Innocent" is a metaphor for the death of innocent children, victims of senseless violence. The killing of the new-born babies at the very beginning of the Christian era by the hand of Herod, King of Judea, thus becomes an eternal act.
