I have always speculated about how the scene depicted in Pollaiuolo's "Battle of Ten Nudes" might play out. I would love it someone with artistic talent might produce a series of sketches showing the aftermath of each round of the battle, first showing five victors and five naked corpses on the ground, then the survivors continuing to take each other on until there is only one survivor surrounded by a pile of nine corpses. Then maybe an arrow flies in from the side and adds him to the pile.
