The Murder, 1867-70
In Paris Cezanne chose to teach himself, copying paintings in the Louvre by Titian, Peter Paul Rubens, Michaelangelo, Caravaggio and Eugene Delacroix.
Much like the old masters he explored tense, heightened mythological stories, as seen in the macabre painting, The Murder, 1867-70. At the same time Cezanne was drawn to the progressive side of the Parisian art world, picking up influences from Gustav Courbet and Edouard Manet in his early work, emulating their dark, moody colour schemes and heavy handling of paint

‘Goya’s Graphic Imagination’ Review: Etched in Blood and Acid

From spooky Halloween organs and the wild trip that is Symphonie Fantastique, to entire albums programmed around this concept (here’s looking at you, Nick Phan), there’s always a time to indulge in the macabre when music’s involved. All in good fun — of course.

On the centenary of the death of writer Edgar Allan Poe — October 7, 1949 — a partially empty bottle of cognac and three red roses were left at the poet's grave. Since then, the Poe Toaster has left his mark every year on Poe's birthday; today will mark his 60th visit. Edgar Allan Poe, born 200 years ago today, wrote what is often called the first modern detective story, "The Murders in the Rue Morgue." His poems and short stories were often macabre and ghoulish and highly romantic. Two of Poe's best-known poems are "The Raven " and "Annabel Lee."
