This beautiful painting is the work of Swedish Artist Charlotta Westergren. It is not in fact a medieval work of art but a painting that has been painted in the style of the famous Unicorn Tapestries.
“War on Terror” is an oil on linen tapestry depicting a unicorn mercilessly goring a dog with its horn. The image comes from “The Unicorn Tapestries”, iconic works from the late 1400s-early 1500s (which you can see at The Cloisters). The pure innocence of the unicorn is replaced with a vicious rage, as it lashes out against another creature. In the flurry of animals you cannot tell which are trying to kill and which are trying to flee. Westergren cites the pain in Theodore Gericault’s “The Raft of the Medusa” as her inspiration.
