Victim of fanaticism

"Victim of bigotry" is among the most famous paintings by the Ukrainian artist Nikolay Pimonenko, painted in 1899.In the picture Pimonenko depicts the plot he read in the newspaper: the Jewish community lynched a girl who converted to Christianity. A cross appears on her neck. The girl's father and mother are on the right – the mother cries and the father raises his right hand, which symbolizes that he gives up his daughter.

The painting is stored in the Kharkiv Art Museum.
