A shadowed figure of history, cloaked in mystery and melancholy.
This Gothic Plague Doctor Cross Stitch Pattern by The Gilded Moth brings to life the haunting elegance of medieval medicine and timeless memento mori art.

Framed by ornate gold and lit by candlelight, this design evokes dark cottagecore, Victorian apothecaries, and the quiet beauty of decay — perfect for those who find art in the macabre.
