the guy with the blue apron has a halo, which might have a spiritual meaning.
yes, and in that case the trinket I mentioned could be construed as a prayer bracelet. The cloth with the red cross on it drapes down and hits the bottom of the chair and perhaps what appears as blood (symbolism is purposeful no doubt) is a tassel. It definitely resembles or brings to mind something that could be worn by someone part of the Knights Templar (or draped over casket).
Please also note: the guy on the right has a cloth on his knees where red bloods streams in form of a cross (although it also could be seen as a ribbon), it looks similar to the Templar's cross.
Biljana Djurdjevic's oil painting is steeped in art-historical quotations. People and horses in "Cabaret" remember Uc c ello, but they are reinterpreted into its opposite. From Uccello's dragon slayer w ill be a torture ready r henchman. In addition to allusions to the Renaissance , the striking figures suggest associations with socialist realism.
Saint George and the Dragon is a painting by Paolo Uccello dating from around 1470. It is on display in the National Gallery, London, United Kingdom.[1] It was formerly housed in the Palais Lanckoroński in Vienna, belonging to Count Lanckoroński and sold by his son and heir Anton in 1959 through Mr Farago. The first mention of it being there is 1898.
Gothicizing tendencies in Paolo Uccello's art are nowhere more apparent than in this painting. It shows a scene from the famous story of Saint George and the dragon. On the right George is spearing the beast, and on the left the princess is using her belt as a leash to take the dragon up to the town.
The painting is used as the basis for the U. A. Fanthorpe poem, Not My Best Side,[2] and may have served as inspiration for Sir John Tenniel's illustration of the Jabberwock in Through the Looking-Glass, and What Alice Found There.

thanks for the ping, will check out more soon. The Dental Society appears to be the Interrogation/dismemberment Team.

Did you notice the guy on the left is cupping his junk?

And one is holding a trinket, like a souvenir off a victim.

Also note that they wear hoods/masks, like you would expect of someone who tortures.
And although this is most likely a glass window in the door, the guy with the blue apron has a halo, which might have a spiritual meaning.
Please also note: the guy on the right has a cloth on his knees where red bloods streams in form of a cross, it looks similar to the Templar's cross.

Yes, I think it might intentionally been painted in a way that it could be both - a tassel, or blood.

It definitely is intended to be blood, whether symbolically or a puddle. The reason why is unknown to us.

Or St. George's Cross.

Maybe we should check all Djurdjevic paintings for hidden meanings and symbols.

Ok.

Welcome, @kestrel9.

I was being sarcastic. The men in the Dentist Society painting look like they torture, kill and dismember people.

Ah ok, lol.
Yes, they do, indeed.
