Memento Mori Hoodie

Description

This print is taken from a 15th century wood carving by the German artist Michael Wolgemut. It serves as a “Memento Mori,” meaning “Remember Death” in Latin. Memento mori is the medieval theory and practice of reflection on mortality, especially as a means of considering the vanity of earthly life and the transient nature of all earthly goods and pursuits.

A scene like this is called a “Danse Macabre” or “Dance of Death,” which serves as an allegory on the universality of death: no matter one’s station in life, the Danse Macabre unites all.
