This wax seal captures Death in a whimsical moment, blowing bubbles that dance through the air in a beautiful, fleeting display. It prompts reflection on the cycle of life, death, and rebirth.
Inspired by Johann Georg Laimberger's 1730s stucco art in the Church of St. Michael in Bamberg, Germany, this seal echoes his portrayal of mortality. Laimberger's depiction of Death blowing bubbles, holding a shell and pipe, particularly caught my attention as a favorite, subtly reminding us of life's impermanence.
