It is believed, that 'L’Exécution' may represent the execution of an Italian anarchist Sante Geronimo Caserio who assassinated Marie François Sadi Carnot, the president of France and was sentenced to the guillotine in August 1894.
Whilst Félix Vallotton's Nabi friends were producing multi-coloured posters and colourful prints, he favoured the clear contrast between deep black and the white of the paper, even dispensing with traditional effects of gradation.

Elected member of the Secession. He often used wood-cutting techniques that were popular amongst German Expressionists. Steinhardt was driven to express ideas clearly and decisively through art. Amongst the themes found in his work the prophets of the Bible, such as Jonah, are noticeable. Steinhardt identified deeply with Jonah due to his attempt to run from God's call to duty. Additionally, the image of beggars was often found in Steinhardt's works and in his artistic presentation of the less fortunate, the artist's love for his fellow man becomes evident. Moreover, the grotesque was a theme noticeable in Steinhardt's earliest pieces. These were fantastical images; it was unclear whether or not they were human or demon. In the 1950's, Steinhardt returned to these images upon learning of the Holocaust of Europe's Jews. At that time he resided in New York and there, in the shadow of the skyscrapers, Steinhardt's reaction to WWII was expressed through his art.
