Demons
Every age drew its fears with horns
Demon art prints: paintings, engravings, posters and illustrations of devils, demons, monsters and dragons.
Works include Hieronymus Bosch's The Temptation of Saint Anthony and Death and the Miser, Pieter Bruegel the Elder's The Seven Deadly Sins: Pride, Albrecht Dürer's Knight, Death, and the Devil (1513) and Saint George Slaying the Dragon, and Odilon Redon's Symbolist lithographs (Mephistopheles, The Crying Spider). The collection also includes Katsushika Hokusai's The Laughing Demoness, Edward Burne-Jones's Theseus and the Minotaur, Leonetto Cappiello's devil posters, a Chamba miniature of Rama fighting Ravana and illustrations by Kay Nielsen and Arthur Rackham.
The selection covers the demon as moral warning in Northern Renaissance art, as folklore in Japanese prints and as a comic figure in posters.
The detailed engravings and dark scenes suit studies, libraries and hallways; the Cappiello posters work in a bar or games room. All prints are museum-quality reproductions, available unframed or framed with low-glare acrylic glazing, with free shipping and import duties covered.
