caption: The image shows a page from a medieval manuscript depicting a man in a red cloak and a woman in a blue dress, both of whom appear to be in a state of distress. The man is holding a sword and the woman is lying on the ground, suggesting that they are in the midst of a battle. The text on the paper reads "The death of St. John the Baptist". The colors used in the painting are muted and somber, conveying a sense of sadness and despair.
