For thousands of years, people have shared a special fascination for the supernatural, with benevolent and magnificent creatures being common to virtually all cultures.
Demons are usually malevolent beings that are trying to inflict harm on
people, even though initially the term was not carrying the same negative connotation.
Demons were cited in the mythology of Asian civilizations and over the course of time they emerged into fearsome creatures.
Christian demonology brought them into the spotlight and the associations made with
fallen Angels are still lingering in the collective memory of religious people. These creatures were depicted differently by artistic movements and
Framed Demon Art can provide collectors with plenty of paintings that highlight these differences in Western Renaissance occultism.
The concept of demons is indissolubly linked to many religions and they remain a central element, feared due to their supposed power of possessing people. This is a theme that surfaces often in
Framed Demon Art and the image exercises a special magnetism on those who gaze upon them. Several major religions, such as Christianity, Islam and Judaism used to take demons seriously and each of them made a contribution in the way the supernatural creatures are currently perceived. The earliest mentions go back to Zoroastrianism and many of the ideas were adopted by the aforementioned religions.
