Ars Moriendi или искусство умирания. Именно эта тема стала основой для составления английского алфавита в картинках художником по имени Edward Gorey (сделано это в далеком 1962 году). Все картинки посвящены смерти детей, что несколько жутковато и отдает самым натуральным черным английским юмором…Впрочем, убедитесь сами.
