The Bible has always been used as an excellent source of art subjects for depicting various characters and well as couples. And the theme of Judith and Holofernes is the subject of many paintings and sculptures. The story of these two characters is told in the deuterocanonical Book of Judith, and it opposes Holofernes, an invading Assyrian general and Judith, a beautiful widow. She is able to enter the tent of the warrior, Holofernes, who is captivated by her beauty, and once he is overcome with drink and passed out, Judith decapitates him. The Assyrians wanted to destroy Judith’s home, the city of Bethulia, and for this reason she decided to take their leader away and depriving them of their strength. The painting represents the moment following Holofernes death, when Judith, richly dressed and bejewelled and still holding the Assyrian general’s sword in her hand, is assisted by the old maid as she places the invader’s decapitated head into a bag.
