“Isle of the Dead” 1883 (German: Die Toteninsel) is the most famous painting by the Swiss symbolist artist Arnold Böcklin. Inspired by ancient Greek mythology, Böcklin painted an island where, among cypress trees, there is an entrance to the realm of the dead — Hades — through the ruins of an ancient temple.

The painting, created in a romantic style, shows a boat with a ferryman to the land of the dead — Charon — and a figure in white, representing a priest and a coffin covered with a white cloth. The water the boat crosses can be understood as the rivers Styx or Acheron.

This reproduction is perfect as a poster, wall decor, or wall hanging for gothic interiors. It also makes a great gift for art lovers, fans of symbolism, and those who appreciate dark landscapes.
