In the play " Macbeth" Lady Macbeth convinces Macbeth to kill King Duncan in order for him to become King. Once Macbeth kills Duncan he has to continue killing innocent people to protect what he has done.I chose this picture because i think it shows how equally responsible Lady Macbeth and Macbeth are in the killing of King Duncan. Also i think its symbolic that Macbeth has the most blood on his hand but its spilling onto Lady Macbeth's hand. I think that's because even though Macbeth committed the actual murder Lady Macbeth is the one who recommend and supported it. I always tied Lady Macbeth to the archetype the temptress because she was beautiful and Macbeth was physical attracted to her which in result was his downfall. Macbeth is the the devil archetype for obvious reasons but also because even though he didn't kill King Duncan until the witch's told him he would be king or because Lady Macbeth convinced him to but i believed he secretly always thought about it. The sword that they are both holding i believe that was the murder weapon that was used to kill Duncan even though it's not said in the play how he was killed. Also judging by the looks on their faces they look terrified or a look of uncertainty but not a look of remorse.
