The English Dance of Death from the Designs of Thomas Rowlandson
R Ackermann
- This book contains Volumes 1 and 2 of the original work. The Dance of Death is a subject so well known to have employed the talents of distinguished painters in the Ages of Superstition, that little is required to recall it to the recollection of the antiquary, the lover of the arts and the artist. The present object is merely to attract the public attention to the subject itself. Few remains are now visible of the original paintings which represented it, but they have been perpetuated by the more durable skill of the engraver. The myriad of illustrations are coupled with skillfully written poetry, all descriptive of the Dance of Death.
