"Death in Pursuit of Man" (1905) is a notable work by Hungarian artist Aladár Körösfői-Kriesch, a leading figure of the Hungarian Arts and Crafts movement and a key proponent of the Gödöllő artist colony. This painting is a striking example of Körösfői-Kriesch's symbolic and allegorical style, which often grappled with profound themes such as mortality, destiny, and the human condition.

The painting depicts the personification of Death, a common motif in art history, in an active pursuit of human beings, symbolizing the inescapable nature of mortality. The artwork is characterized by its dramatic composition and the emotional intensity conveyed through the figures' expressions and postures. Körösfői-Kriesch's use of color and form reflects the influence of Art Nouveau and Symbolism, movements that were prominent at the turn of the 20th century.

"Death in Pursuit of Man" is considered an important piece within Körösfői-Kriesch's oeuvre, as it encapsulates the philosophical and aesthetic concerns of the period, as well as the artist's personal exploration of universal themes. The painting is also significant for its reflection of the cultural and artistic milieu of early 20th-century Hungary, where national identity and a search for a distinct artistic language were of paramount importance.

This work is held in high regard for its artistic merit and as a cultural artifact that provides insight into the zeitgeist of the era in which it was created. It continues to be studied and appreciated for its contribution to Hungarian art and the broader narrative of European modernism.
