We know that some paintings are quite disturbing, but when you are watching closely, we will see that those paintings are made for the purpose. Above of this text is the painting, what is known as the name "Death and the miser". The artist what has been painted this painting have made sharp and excellent work, and this means that the painter was made this painting for the purpose. The murders were the common cause of death of the noblemen in medieval Europe and in that time the unlocked door might mean death.
A disturbed person acts impulsively, and the pictures and texts what they do, are not very sharp. So this painting is made for the purpose, and we probably see that purpose very clear. It's made for the warning, that is the nobleman is not careful, while this person goes to bed, will he face the death, by the hand of the assassin. In this picture, the death will look from the door, and in the hand of him is the Irish hunting spear, what might look like a toy. This traditional weapon looks like an arrow, but it will not shoot with the longbow, and that is the reason, why it seems harmless.
The effect of this weapon is the poison, what will get by some vegetables or fish. The poison what was used in this spear is usually from flesh-eating flora Venus flytrap or stonefish, and it is absolutely deadly. Also the "wise men from the east" sold the poison of cobra or some other exotic poisons to the assassins, who worked for European kings. The rotten flesh has the very bad effect because if the flesh will rotten in the space, there is no oxygen, will there be composed the botulinum toxin, the most powerful neural toxin in the world.
But that bottle what is filled with rotten flesh and sand would uncover the dirty secret of this person. Those assassins were very common way, to change the kings and the poison was often the cause of the death of the noblemen in Europe in medieval time. The makers of the poison must, of course, hide their work from other people. If they were caught, the end would be in the hang rope.
