Besties Doing a Nice Beheading! Judith Slaying Holofernes Unisex Jersey Short Sleeve Tee

This badass tee reads:

Just Me and My Bestie Doin' a Lil Beheading

Italian artist Artemisia Gentileschi completed the painting Judith Slaying Holofernes in 1613, portraying the biblical Judith and her maidservant Abra saving the Israelites of Bethulia by beheading the general Holofernes after he fell into a drunken stupor.

Why choose this subject matter? It was pretty obviously intended as a form of revenge against Gentileschi’s rapist, Agostino Tassi, who Gentileschi famously testified against, even enduring torture by thumbscrew in order to “verify” her testimony. The 17th century was rough, y’all. We hope this shirt makes you imagine gathering your own lady pals and getting real crafty with a sword.

This classic unisex jersey short sleeve tee fits like a well-loved favorite. Soft cotton and quality print make users fall in love with it over and over again. These t-shirts have-ribbed knit collars to bolster shaping. The shoulders have taping for better fit over time. Dual side seams hold the garment's shape for longer.
