The skeleton of Death feeds a baby, 18th century
The skeleton of Death, Freund Hans, feeds a baby in swaddling clothes with a spoon, 18th century. The mother watches with horror, and a cat licks milk from a bowl next to the crib. Death and the baby in swaddling clothes. Unwelcome zeal. Unwillfommene Diestbeflissenheit. Copperplate engraving by Johan Georg Mansfeld after an original by Johann Rudolf Schellenberg from Johan Kark Musaus's Freund Heins Erscheinungen in Holbeins Manier, (Apparitions of Death in the manner of Holbein) Mannheim, 1803
