The Accusers of Theft, Adultery, Murder (War)

William Blake, c. 1794/1796

The image shows three full-length figures standing closely together, each with distinct postures. The first figure on the left has curly brown hair and is dressed in a textured, gold-hued garment. The central figure has a pale complexion, a thick blond beard, and wears a crown of gold. He is draped in a black outfit and appears to be grasping his chin with both hands. The third figure on the right has curly blond hair and a muscular build, holding a large, black sword in both hands. He is partially clothed in a blue garment wrapped around his torso. The background consists of swirling dark and reddish tones.
