"Der Todesengel" (The Angel of Death) is a haunting illustration by Austrian symbolist artist Alfred Kubin. The artwork depicts a skeletal figure, cloaked in white, standing over a headless, nude woman, emphasizing the inevitability of death. Kubin's detailed style and use of light and shadow create an atmosphere of dread, capturing the chilling nature of the subject matter. This artwork is a striking example of Kubin's signature dark and surreal style, often referencing themes of death, decay, and the subconscious.
