An exploration into the 19th century death mystiques, which rely heavily on the supernatural, along with a belief in, or at least fascination with, fairy magic, much of it implied through subtle imagery. In all, it is a fascinating and astonishingly replete compendium of spiritual endeavour - the 19th century literary body of work that is, along with such masterful illustratiors as Gustave, Dore and others. These authors were passionately interested in what is noble and what is depraved, a far cry from present day ethics. - LJ
