Does Death actually have a gender? I had always thought Death was like the
Seraphim and genderless.

Did Alfred Rethel do several versions of "Der Tod als Erw�rger"? I see
that Death's right arm in the version you depected, lament, is different
from the drawing at:

I prefer Death as described by Terry Pratchett in the Discworld novels.
Der Tod Als Erw�rger fits that description very neatly.

I'm pretty sure netburger has mistitled two Rethel pictures.
The one you've shown is actually called Der Tod Als Freund.
The real Erw�rger is the one netburger calls Freund - 

http://www.netburger.at/aie/docs/tod/tod_freund/

Anywhere else on the 'net the pictures are titled properly.

What!?  Do Seraphim never appear nude in classical paintings, like Cherubim do?

And if they did, what would we see beteen their legs?

A Barbie-doll blank smoothness?

I did see that others had titled that Death with the bellringer as "Der
Tod als Freunde". (I do beg your pardon; I neglected to say that your
reproduction of "Der Tod als Erw�rger" is very good, by the way.) But the
mistitled one was the first that came up in my Google search. Most of the
other sites were in German - I can only read very rudimentary German. (My
pocket German-English dictionary says erw�rgen means "strangle". Does
Erw�rger mean strangler?)

Hello llizard,

as always, I'm fond of your scribblings and try to
really understand every bit, as you put everything
in a nonrandom way. But some questions are left.

First of all, to pay a little for the answers:
Yes, "Erwuergen" means "to strangle". And "Erwuerger"
is "strangler".

1. Why do "you" resemble an insect sometimes?
2. I am quite certain, the ^^ below is the bottom
   line of your skirt. Right?
