PORTRAITS OF TERROR

Welcome to the month of spookiness. The fun and excitement that the Halloween month holds has a lot to do with the eerie moments we experience. To portray and maintain the eeriness of this holiday spirit, we’re here with some fabulous pieces of art. Famous painters have created beautiful, intellectual, and eternal works of art. There are, however, a plethora of frightful paintings that shine a light on humanity’s evil amid these magnificent masterpieces.

1. THE GHOST OF A FLEA – WILLIAM BLAKE

This image could be close to what one would envision if they tried to imagine the most bizarre creature they could as a ghost. This miniature painting by one of the famous English poets and painters William Blake is held at the Tate Gallery in London. Portraying the ghostliness, the painting carried off with golden strokes over the contrasting drama that the artwork creates. It was finished between 1819 and 1820 as a piece in a series of “Visionary Heads” paintings that the astrologer and watercolourist John Varley (1778-1842) commissioned.

From 1770 to 1830, spiritual art was common in Britain, and during this period, Blake frequently created otherworldly, supernatural panels to amuse and astonish his companions. The monster in this picture is holding a cup for sucking blood and is gazing eagerly in its direction. Blake’s hybrid of a man and a beast symbolizes a human personality tainted by animalistic tendencies.

2. SATURN – PETER PAUL RUBENS
