Raven on a Skull and a Book – Symbolic Metal Sculpture (Z118)

Z118 is a dark sculpture showing one of the strongest and gloomiest symbols in our culture: a raven on a skull and a book.

The raven is most often associated with death, as is the skull, while the book stands for power and knowledge.

The whole sculpture therefore carries broad symbolism linked to the Illuminati, the Templars, death, knowledge and power, as well as to the Gothic mood.

Steel with a dark character

The sculpture was made by hand from steel, the noblest material for a work on such a theme, and during the work we used techniques that emphasise its dark character. The raven’s ragged, spread wings and the polished skull catch the light in very different ways.

We make sculptures like this to order in any size and with any additional wishes. The raven appears in a different setting in our raven and pentagram, and a figure of Death carrying a lantern is our grim reaper sculpture.
