Since this current pandemic started, I've been interested in looking back at art made in response to events like the Black Death, such as the danse macabre motif, or memento mori.

Based on one of Holbein's woodblock prints, The Peddlar and the Danse Macabre:

Cool idea. This is probably the first pixel art that brought to mind The Seventh Seal and Disney's Skeleton dance simultaneously. And there's something funny about using old PETSCII to recreate old medieval art. :)
