War and Peace

On the day the Lord gave the Amonites over to Israel, Joshua said to the Lord in the presence of Israel, “O sun, stand still over Gibeon; O moon, over the Valley of Ayalon”

Joshua 10:12

So the sun stood still and the moon stopped till the nation avenged itself on its enemies

Joshua 10:13

Size: 1.84m x 1.38m (72in x 54in)

In the background, a semicircle symbolizes both the sun and the moon, as if frozen in space. From that massive shape the dramatic episode of the Book of Joshua is developed using fluid figures and characters, as though in a frantic dance of war and peace.
