Captif Sacrifie par les Antis, 1723. Creator: Bernard Picart
Captif Sacrifie par les Antis, 1723. Captive sacrificed by the Antis. Gruesome scene in the Americas, showing a man tied to a post being flayed and bled with knives. From " Ceremonies et coutumes religieuses de tous les peuples du monde", (Religious Ceremonies and Customs of All the Peoples of the World), by Jean-Frederic Bernard, illustrated by Bernard Picart. Although Picart never left Europe, he relied on accounts by those who had. The book marked a major turning point in European attitudes toward religious belief and hence the sacred. [Amsterdam, 1723-1737]
