This is a reproduction of Arnold Brocklin’s masterpiece “Isle of the Dead” of 1880. It resides in the Kunstmuseum in Basel, Switzerland. Brocklin was a Swiss Symbolist artist who died in 1901 at the age of 74 years. He was a leading light of his age and this image is typical of his treatment of mythological scenes. This particular work was inspired by the English cemetery in Florence, Italy.
