Death checkmates a king

Revenant Checkmate

Death checkmates the king. This is one of only four surviving copies, and the only one to bear the artist's mark: The initials BR and an anchor (below the sleeping dog). The top, left corner has been torn off, but was later repaired with a pen (angel's right wing, hats and text-ribbon). Source: Kunstmuseum Basel. There's a larger version here: Checkmate.
