Taxidermy: “The Grim Reaper and The Drunkard” Mice Skeleton Bar Diorama.
A superbly detailed miniature diorama of a bar scene. One mouse skeleton sat on a bar stool, leaning on the bar. The other as the grim reaper in hooded cloak holding a scythe. Offering the drunk mouse another tankard of beer. A spine runs along the front of the bar, with a mouse skull on shield on the wall. Various miniatures including bottles; kegs and an hour glass - where the time has run out. With battery operated LED lights in each of the miniature light fittings. Charming attention to detail throughout. All enclosed in a Perspex and balsa wood case.
Created by an artist that only uses specimens that her cat brings in. Preparing the skeletons herself and then making these unique dioramas.
