Original artwork description:

Print this artwork is available in society6_x000D_ _x000D_ I was always bewitched by optical illusions in works of art, especially in ancient engravings. The famous artists liked "to cipher" a mystical image of a skull in the works either; my favorite picture is "The Ambassadors" by Hans Holbein the Younger. In anticipation of Halloween I have given in to mysticism of this day too and have created this work where two young girls are reading the tarot cards, creating illusion of an ominous skull. _x000D_ _x000D_ This graphic work will become a fine gift for Halloween and will add a mystical aura to your house._x000D_ _x000D_ This drawing was hand-painted, using professional Winsor&Newton; watercolors and 140lb (300g/m2) cotton watercolor paper. _x000D_ _x000D_ Size: 18 x 22 inches (46 x 56 cm)_x000D_ _x000D_ Painting by Olga Beliaeva based on the idea of S. Kozintsev.
