38 Medieval Paintings of People Getting Their Shit Rocked

Look, I’m not going to dispute that it kind of sucks to be alive right now. But at least you’re not getting sawed completely in half, and then having a painting done of you being sawed in half that shows your butt.

Some of these paintings are medieval violence, I can understand, like kings being beheaded, and piles of screaming peons being burned alive. But for some reason, there’s also multiple paintings of giant rabbits killing people, and naked guys getting shot in the butt with bow and arrows. Medieval times really were crazy. I guess.

Before you could scroll Instagram reels and watch fight videos, looking at paintings like these ones was probably the highest form of entertainment for a medieval peasant. Hopefully you can enter a Middle Ages mindset and get some enjoyment out of these pics. Check 'em out.
