Nowadays I’d rather have death get me than the hospital bill
They carved? Interesting.
Actually looks badass
You shall not pass
“Meh! Thwarted again by Dr. Man!”
Death looks absolutely shook
That’s mercury blocking death. Pretty powerful symbolism I like it.
Rubbish. This is a sculptor by Julian Joke Harris called Keeping Away Death. It’s depicting a male human avatar of health holding off the skeletal grim reaper and has sod all to do with the hospirtal being cold. And it isn’t carved, it’s cast in aluminium.
Is this Arcadia?
If you didn’t have the year in there, I’d swear that was Art Deco era.
Why “so cold”?
The first psyker
What happens when someone dies?
Death is just some bones while that dude has all that muscle. No contest.
Supermedicine looks dehydrated though, might wanna get an IV or something
He man vs skeleton promotions go hard
Holding the caduceus (representing commerce) rather than the rod of Asclepius (representing medicine). To be fair, there’s a lot of confusion between the two.
That’s just the insurance company denying his procedure
I know the Armored Titan when I see him.
Kinda looks like old Soviet style statuary.
Hermes vs Thanatos?

Sensing death approaching ? Just say no. Death can’t legally take your life without your consent
Death’s prehensile penis holds the scythe freeing both his hands to poke out Chad’s eyes with
This has to be soviet
That is the wrong symbol for medicine. The correct one is one snake and one stick
By none other than Daniel Craig
My thing is like in mythology the caduceus is often associated with mercury/hermes who is the guide of souls to the underworld which is also more or less what a grim reaper is
That is not proper English in the title.
Would make a cool tatoo.
Is this a mural in a Moscow subway station, or am I mixing up memories?
Death has lost several fingers. And a teeth.
Ah yes, staff of cadeucious, symbol of commerce. As long as you got money, we will fight off death for you…
Badass. Wrong staff, though.
Death is like “come on man I’m just doing my job”
Wait… Death’s hands are both there and opened… so what is that scythe….. oh… oh dear… oh no…
Every hospital should have this mural.
That’s the wrong staff, bro 😭
Dude parried the scythe
commercial gym for you bro
Death is like:
Too bad, Death, I’ve already depicted you as the Soyjak and me as the Chad
Not on my shift Death
I think this is dumb because death always wins, he just waits. Doctors have never saved a life, they have only delayed death.
Nowadays death is ushered in
Still appropriate. That’s me on the left being blocked from care by health insurance companies on the right with a death grip on Doctors.
