The Music of Erich Zann
Painting inspired by the short story “Th Music of Erich Zann” written by HP Lovecraft.
This story is about a student of metaphysics, called Charles Dexter Ward, who befriends Erich Zann. Erich is an ageing violinist who lives on the floor above him. Charles is fascinated by Zann’s sinister yet wonderful music that he hears late at night drifting down from above.
As he is drawn into Erich’s haunting music Charles discovers more then he bargains for when he peers at what horrors beckon beyond the strange curtained window in Zann’s room.
