EDITORS COMMENTS
In this hauntingly beautiful print titled "The Plague on the Mountain, 1901" we are transported to a snowy and desolate landscape. The image, captured by O. Vaering, showcases the artwork of Kittelsen, Theodor Severin (1857-1914). At first glance, one is immediately struck by the eerie atmosphere that permeates the scene. A sense of foreboding hangs in the air as an old hag-like figure emerges from behind a snow-covered mountain peak. This personification of death itself is depicted as a grim reaper cloaked in darkness. The winter setting adds to the overall chilling effect of the composition. The mountains stand tall and imposing, their peaks covered with thick layers of snow. It seems as though nature itself has succumbed to despair under the weight of this plague. Kittelsen's illustration skillfully captures both beauty and dread simultaneously. Through his masterful brushstrokes and attention to detail, he transports us into a wintery world where life meets its inevitable end. This piece serves as a reminder of our mortality and forces us to confront our own fears surrounding death. It invites contemplation about our place in nature's grand design and leaves an indelible impression long after viewing it. "The Plague on the Mountain" is truly a testament to Kittelsen's artistic prowess and ability to evoke deep emotions through his work.
