The Seven Deadly Sins: Title Page

James Ensor

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image depicts a black and white drawing of a group of seven people with grotesque faces. A skull with large wings, resembling a bird, is behind them. The skull has large eye sockets and an open mouth, and the wings are feathered and spread out to the sides. The seven people are drawn with exaggerated features and appear to be looking in different directions. They have long hair and are dressed in tattered clothing. The background of the image is a light brown color, resembling aged paper. There is writing in cursive at the bottom of the image. The overall atmosphere of the image is dark and ominous.
