Death has long been a muse for artists, writers, and creators, but why does it hold such a profound grip on our imagination? It’s the ultimate mystery, the one thing we all face yet can never fully understand. From Shakespeare’s somber sonnets to modern abstract paintings, death inspires art in ways that life often cannot.
