Summary: Find an image of a person that you feel personifies or embodies death and post it.
Rules:
1. Preferably only images-But if you think there is no equivalent to what you have chosen or that its really good post it.
2. Subject that is meant to be death must be a person.
3. No choosing known military/political leaders or criminals. For example no Hitler.
4. Also allowed are scenes with multiple people. Image does not necessarily have be of one person.
Other than that its fair game!

This is the shit. Buddhist monk burns himself alive, and meditates while being burned alive. Somehow, his heart remained unburnt. His heart is on display in some temple.

Also I forget who the artist is, but whoever did this picture did a lot of other ones that really feel, to me, what hell must feel and look like.

Literally just pictures of grim reapers or dead people, yer not wrong, but not very creative either
>>6849969
Very nice anon
OP here guys!
Surprised to see thread got this much activity. Here is a famous picture of Ruth Snyder being executed by electric chair in 1928. The picture was taken by a reporter who smuggled a camera into Sing Sing by attaching it to his leg.

Not only was this picture a great choice in my opinion and one of the more creative on here, but if I look closely I feel like I can actually see the grim reaper.
Look just to the right of the monks head. If you cant find it draw a straight line from his eyes to the right and then a separate line from the upside down wave shape design on the side of the car. That is the grim reaper's left eye. The outline of his hood is that darker looping line from the monks forehead to below the left eye. The bridge of the nose is directly left of the left eye and just right of the partial right eye. The few jagged teeth are the little triangles that follow the monks robe collar to the right of the bottom of his neck. It might just be me but it looks like the grim reaper. I might try to outline it if no one gets it. Probably just daydreaming :D

You're image really reminds me of this one short story where a man and his family find a farm during the great depression with a full field of wheat and food brimming over. All of the wheat dies when harvested with a scythe, and starts growing again almost immediately. The supplies also regenerate when no one's looking. The big twist is that each stalk represents someone, and the wielder of the scythe is what kills them. The man really struggles to cut his wife and kids stalks after they get sick, even though it is far past the time for them to be harvested. They suffer, so he cuts theirs, gets angry and cuts a bunch at random, which causes a couple of tragedies, contemplates if it's worth it to continue with his task, and then cuts his own, which is still green.
