About Pictures

All knows most famous wall painting " Dance of Death".
Maybe you learned at school. But this is very interesting and famous in all the world. Bern Notke painted this in Lübeck, it was about in 1463 year.
That is, all people are equal before death. Whether you are a Pope or an infant, a man or a woman, famous or poor. Everything is equal before death. It painted when Europa were ravaged by major famine and all kinds of illnesses. These pictures are from Rakvere castle. But they give emotions well. Unfortunately, I have not seen the original picture yet.
