Synopsis:
In 1816, the Frigate ship "Meduses" stranded off Mauritania.
The raft of the rushing life boat was found by other ships that drifted nearly 150 people and drifted for 13 days, but only 15 survivors were found.
The French Restoration Government at the time hidden the case, but during the drifting period, a variety of inhuman acts, including murder and eater on the raft, became bright.
It was Theodor Jerico who drew a masterpiece based on this shocking incident and created a scandal in a salon. What did he see in this case?
In order to "draw what happened accurately", the public is terrified, such as placing the corpse in the atelier, but
Jericho is driven by his sincere belief, trying to reveal human nature.
In the early 19th century, he described a half -life approaching the essence of humans, a painter called "pioneer in modern paintings," prior to romanticism and impressions.
