The Memento Mori Collection is an assortment of nature-inspired woodcut prints from Dutch artist Julie de Graag.
I came across her work while looking at public domain images and thought they would look cool in TS4. Enjoy 7 striking swatches of art nouveau reproduction prints for only §120 each!
About This Set
This is a recolor and upscale of a base game painting. I found and edited some public domain artworks from the artist Julie de Graag starting with the eponymous skull piece, Memento Mori, and built this collection around that, choosing artwork that fit the same ratio and worked well with the other art I'd selected.
About The Art
The featured works were created between 1916-1920. Julie de Graag is most well known for her art nouveau style woodcuts which she produced using end grain, a timber difficult to work with which produces much cleaner prints. Julie’s life was marred by illness and, due to her fragile state, she often stayed with her parents in The Hague. In the early 1920’s her physical and mental health deteriorated to the point where she could no longer teach. Her declining mental health was reflected in her work which became increasingly morbid.
