In striking contrast to the white blanket of snow, somber Death spreads her powerful wings over even the digger of graves. A German Symbolist painter, Charles Schwabe, inspired by the demise of a close friend the year prior, persuaded his wife to pose as his model for death in this idealistic and very personal work of art. The authentic stretched canvas replica painting captures the original work's texture, depth of color, and even its subtle brushstrokes, which are applied by hand exclusively for Design Toscano. Our replica European style, bright gold-toned, ribbed frame is cast in quality designer resin with an acanthus leaf and floret border that draws the eye toward the beautiful image. Small: 14.75 in. W x 17.25 in. H. framed (6.75 in. W x 9.25 in. H. image size, 4 in. W. frame). Color: Multi-Colored.

Carlos Schwabe (1866-1926), though of German origin, acquired Swiss nationality and lived in France for most of his life. He settled in Paris at a time when, with the birth of Symbolism, a vast movement of reaction to Naturalism was taking shape. Despite his secret and solitary character, Schwabe was to play an important role in the artistic life of the turn of century. Social and philosophical upheavals were to turn his thoughts towards dreams and metaphysical interrogations. Through an abundance of pictorial and graphic work, the artist used his fertile imagination to create a magical, more generous world. He also placed his art in the service of some of the greatest names of his era (Baudelaire, Mallarme, Samain, Maeterlink and Zola), in the illustrations of books which remain amongst the treasures of bibliophiles.
