Evidence
In his work, Michael Camille mentions a painting of Muhammad that depicts him “wounding and attacking Christ,” suggesting that images of Muslims in the same schema as Jewish executioners were in fact produced. Despite the lack of pictorial images, Muslim cynocephalie are portrayed as Christ-killers and the enemies of Christian soldiers in texts. — Sophia Rose Arjana, Muslims in the Western Imagination, 221
