Medieval Purification
The bowls which contain the smoke are the thuribles. The smoke is incense used to purify, cleanse, drive out evil.
Just imagine the church using this to fight the plague. in Europe.

with his dark glasses and cloak the anachronistic purifier looks a bit demonic himself! can very well imagine him as an ineffectual but melodramatic and awe-inspiring plague fighter on the filthy roads of medieval towns… the burning bowl captured in mid-swing – superb! and the question lingers road to perdition or redemption? ; ) greetings, sabine.Del-Hor 01/04/2013 12:50
