Missionary Being Eaten by a Jaguar | Noé León | 1967

A spotted jaguar bends over a fallen missionary in a clearing crowded with flowers, birds and dense tropical foliage. The animal’s bright yellow body cuts across the black of the man’s clothing, while a cross and open book lie nearby. León gives the violent subject an unusually ordered, decorative setting: individual leaves, feathers and markings remain crisply distinct, creating a disquieting contrast between the luxuriant forest and the encounter at its centre.
