The Death of Art is a painting by Marilyn Manson. It is a landscape portrait depicting the Duchess Anna Amalia Library in Weimar burning. The fire, with its destruction of much historical literature, amounts to a huge cultural loss for Germany, Europe, and indeed the world. A number of books were shock-frozen in the city of Leipzig to save them from rotting.
