this was the coronation of Napoleon, painted 1807, but for some reason Napoleon looks like he is giving the crown to the kneeling woman. It confused me too.

it's pretty lady about to get her head cut off. since it's in doors it makes me think it's part of a play or something like that. i doubt they did a lot of their beheadings indoors. also the hay placed under the chopping block might be there to make it seem as if it was outside.

it adds up if it really is from a play. guess we'll never know tho

"An Experiment on a Bird in the Air Pump:
The painting depicts a natural philosopher, a forerunner of the modern scientist, recreating one of Robert Boyle's air pump experiments, in which a bird is deprived of air, before a varied group of onlookers."

It's called The Apotheosis of War by Vasily Vereschagin, a Russian painter of the late 19this century. Here's the description the Tretyakov Gallery site gives it, "The viewer beholds a dead wasteland baked by the sun with stunted trees. In the distance there is a plundered city. In the centre, a pyramid of human skulls. Such were the “monuments” which the 14th-15th century conqueror Tamerlane (Timur) left after himself. Originally the artist intended to name the painting The Triumph of Tamerlane, however he preferred to give it a larger scale significance and wrote on the frame The Apotheosis of War, adding “This is dedicated to all great conquerors, past, present and future.”"
