About This Design

The Plague by Arnold Bocklin, Vintage Symbolism Mug

The Plague by Arnold Bocklin, Vintage Symbolism Mug

The Plague (1898) by Arnold Bocklin is a vintage Victorian Era Symbolism fine art mythology macabre painting that exemplifies the artist's obsession with nightmares of war, pestilence and death. This scene is from the black plague in which Death rides facing backwards on a winged, fish-tailed flying mythological creature, who travels at high speed through the street of a mediaeval town. Death holds a weapon, a scythe, which he uses to cut down all those who lay in his path. Foreboding clouds of dark smoke rising in the far background (the direction in which Death is headed), indicating that the scene is likely part of a greater apocalypse that has befallen mankind. About the artist: Arnold Böcklin (1827-1901) was a painter specialising in Symbolism and influenced by Romanticism overlapping with the Pre-Raphaelites. They often portray mythological, fantasy figures along classical architecture constructions (revealing often an obsession with death) and creating a strange, fantasy world.

Order was easy and communication great. Order arrived pretty quickly. Unfortunately 2 mugs broke in transit. Helena and the friendly team sent 2 new mugs which arrived safely. Communication was prompt, friendly and extremely helpful. Printing was perfect.
