The english dance of death, from the designs of Thomas Rowlandson. : With metrical illus. by the author of "Doctor Syntaz" / William Combe, Thomas Rolandson.
TheℓDance of Death is an artistic genre of late-medieval allegory intended to illustrate the universality of death. This particular rendition of the genre is more lighthearted than othersℓand depicts contemporary scenes from the era. Death is personified in each engraving by Rowlandson, and poems by Combe describe the scenes in verse.
