It's October, so you know what that means - all things ghosts & ghouls! The Danse Macabre (Dance of Death) is a popular allegory from the medieval period that considered the universality of death & frailness of life. A personification of Death summons the living to dance to their graves.
Death, as a skeleton, plays a pipe to lead other skeletons to their graves, while dancing.

Does this look like a familiar scene to you? A fluffy shadow following you as you go about your day-to-day. This watercolour was painted by Eleanor Fortescue-Brickdale in 1915 as an illustration to 'The Wish' by Abraham Cowley. It beautifully captures an idyllic day in early summer.
A watercolour of a young man walking through a floral-filled garden. Behind him on the ground is a cat.
