Thomas Stindel (1887-1971): Death and the Maiden - Circa 1920

                                                                            *
A Gallery in Vienna has listed a pastel by the Austrian artist Thomas Stindel (1887-1971) which I thought I would share with you. Stindel was a winner of the Rome Prize and his talent shines through in this beautiful rendition of a Symbolist favorite subject, Death and the Maiden. The city of Vienna honored his talent with an honorary award in 1927. Enjoy.
