Black Plague Crewneck Sweatshirts

The perfect shirt for all that ails you!

In the South Lagoon between Venice and Lido sits the small Italian island of Poveglia that for centuries has been a refuge, stronghold, place of exile and a dumping ground for the diseased, dying and deceased. In 1348 the Bubonic Plague arrived in Venice and Poveglia, like many other small islands, became a quarantine colony. In the late 1800s, the area's mentally ill resided in an asylum in Poveglia. The asylum was poorly constructed and was used as a place of exile rather than rehabilitation.

"The dagger dropped gleaming upon the sable carpet." The Masque of the Red Death - Harry Clarke for Edgar Allan Poe Harry Clarke was a leading Irish stained glass artist and Golden Age illustrator. His line work is very detailed and has a somewhat psychedelic feel to it.
