Spiritual and a little spooky

10/27/2017

0 Comments

 
   Memento Mori has been explored in art for centuries. It  is a Latin phrase meaning ‘remember you must die’. Common symbols are skulls, hour glasses or clocks, extinguished or guttering candles, fruit, and flowers.
​   Since it is  the season of the spirits, we've included a selection of works that are symbolic, spiritual,  mysterious, or 'dead'ly.  Happy Halloween!
I would make a skeleton joke, but you wouldn't find it very humerus.
