365filmsbyauroranocte:The Kiss of Death.This work of art is a high relief version of the funerary sculpture “El petó de la mort” (The kiss of death) located in the Poblenou Cemetery in Barcelona (Spain).This sculptural set is, in my opinion, the culmination of Gothic sculpture, understanding this word with its post-punk meaning, capturing like no other the beauty of tragedy, darkness and death.The material is marble dust amalgamated with resin and molded, giving it excellent resistance and durability properties, consistency and a stony touch. It is a solid piece that weighs about 6,5 lb, ideal for mounting on a board, framing or hanging on the wall.This sculpture accumulates legends about its authorship, about its gaze and about its reason for being. One of them is that it inspired the film The Seventh Seal, by Ingmar Bergman.Available in ArteFeudo’s Etsy shop. -- source link
