Daily Sketch #6 Ugolino and His Sons

in art •  8 years ago  (edited)

Today sketch is about surviving.

Sketch based on sculpture, showing Ugolino della Gherardesca, with his sons and grandsons. They were detained in the Muda, a tower belonging to the Gualandi family. In March 1289, the keys were thrown into the Arno river and prisoners were left to starve. That medival times!

Dzisiejszy szkic jest o przetrwaniu.

Na podstawie historii Ugolino della Gherardesca. W 1289 został uwięziony wraz z dwoma synami i dwoma wnukami w wieży, klucz został wrzucony do rzeki Arno. Więźniowie zmarli z głodu. Średniowiecze w pełnym rozkwicie, jak bym czytał Sapkowskiego!
