One of the many colorful wall paintings, or frescoes, in the village of Laguna San Juan, Guatemala. This one measures about 6 feet high by 8 feet wide.

I’m not really sure what is happening in this painting. Between the look on the man’s face, and the fact that two people appear to be holding him, one could think that foul play is afoot. However, I’m more inclined to think it is about a healing.

If any of you have a clue what’s going on here please post a comment.
