Evelyn De Morgan gives The Angel of Death the appearance of a solemn encounter on a stepped platform. A winged figure bends toward a seated woman, with their hands drawing the eye to the center. Gold paint and dark pastel work together on brown paper, making the figures seem both luminous and sculptural.
