Danse Macabre
Danse Macabre - No One Escapes Death
The Blackened Teeth's Halloween Collection 2024
The danse macabre was a literary/pictorial representation of a procession or dance of both living and dead figures expressing the medieval allegorical concept of the all-conquering and equalising power of death. A powerful visual depicting the notion:
'No one escapes death'
Danse Macabre shares the same powerful meaning as ‘Memento Mori’ – a popular motive to live life and reminds of the futility and temporality of life.
