F*cks sake.
Medieval people were weird.
A guy is eating a baby
the woman taking a bath is not giving a damn
the dragon is very confused and buried his face in disbelief
who cares about the baby
There is an explanation for this, of course. But medieval illustrations are best when viewed without knowing the context / what they represent.

The five-week battle saw some of the fiercest and bloodiest fighting of the Pacific War.

I'm fascinated by this mummified pup who lived and died in Siberia 18,000+ years ago since I saw it for the first time. He still had his milk teeth (!!!!!) when he died.

His DNA is under analysis to determine whether he was a dog or a wolf.
Why do I want to hug him
