Jael Kills Sisera 

Bartholomeus Spranger's "Jael Kills Sisera" depicts a pivotal moment from the Book of Judges in the Bible. Jael, a strong woman, is shown striking Sisera, a Canaanite general, with a tent peg. The scene is rendered with dramatic realism, highlighting the violent action and the contrasting emotions of the two figures. Spranger, a prominent Mannerist painter, uses rich colors and dynamic compositions to portray this dramatic biblical narrative.
