The final strike is accompanied by branches for Macbeth shall never be vanquished until the Wood comes against him.
Within it's shapes, #raven figures stand for the ones behind the prophecy -the #witches-.

The fourth #painting of the collection depicts the collapse of the tyrants and restoring #order.
Collection: The Tragedy of #Macbeth
Inspiration: William #Shakespeare’s play
Surrounding the #throne are sculptures of Scotland’s coat of arms also seen in the first piece engraved on Macbeth’s sword. The presence of the all-seeing #raven at the top, on behalf of The Witches, raises the question of who’s really pulling the strings.

The left half shows her as evil as determined, blinded by #greed and the prophecies spoken by The Witches –the six shady hands-. Shoulders up, braided braid and angular shapes suggest self-confidence and #ambition; the fiery #determination required to fulfill the grimmest deeds.
