She looks like she might be sad or in a daze. The head does seem out-of-place.

That was an interesting piece of art. Yeah, I agree with emily there... she seems to be asking "why? why would someone decapitate my husband?"

I guess I'm just morbid for thinking that she cut that fellows head off. It happens from time to time I suppose.

No, no... I think you're right!

Isn't that a sword she's holding in the other hand?

I think she just likes giving head...

I think it's probably supposed to be a picture of the girl who danced before the king and asked for John the Baptist's head on a platter.

I know they're in European clothing, but during the Renaisance that's how they painted bible stories.
