Abstract:
The origins of the danse macabre, or Dance of Death, are obscure; however from the first half of the fifteenth century it spread rapidly through European art, literature and drama. Visual examples are found in murals, stained-glass windows, illuminated manuscripts, early printed books, and sculpture, and it continued to enjoy great popularity amongst artists and patrons long after the medieval period.
