The Middle Ages (104) : The Devil
This series is an attempt to illustrate how life was going on in the Middle Ages.
In those dark times, there was a strong belief in the devil, also known as Satan.
It was generally thought that the devil was a real, living power, a tangible personality, a supernatural entity that was the personification of evil and the enemy of God and humankind.
Millions of people were afraid of him, abetted by the church.
Photographed at medieval festival of castle Franchimont (Belgium)
***
The devil always appeared in different disguises. In the picture below you can see him in another shape.
