In this image, the picture depicted is that of the Shepard being sent to kill baby Oedipus. This it the main turning point for the whole play. It is important to the Play because this is the moment when the prophesy is known to come true. Because of the Shepard compassion, by giving baby Oedipus to the neighboring kingdom, he has sealed the fate of the King and Queen of Thebes. This also contributes to Oedipus being ignorant of his true birth and letting fate rule all. |
