I plan on getting something from Danse Macabre (Holbein). I you could like a post more than once.

Isn't it beautiful? He's the same artist who did all the portraits of and for Henry VIII. I had an old 1920s copy of Dances of Death checked out of the library for about a year that I just kept renewing so I could paw through it again and again. It's not as good as owning a copy, but I just saw that you can download the digitised version of the entire book:

The dance of death : Holbein, Hans, 1497-1543 : Free Download & Streaming : Internet Archive
