Unearthed Horrors of Dead Miners for Halloween 710 Ml Water Bottle
Johannes Josephus Aarts, a Dutch master known for his dramatic scenes, captured a haunting image titled "The Miners." Two emaciated figures, their skin stretched taut over their bones, toiled away in a dark mine lit only by a single flickering candle. This Halloween, however, a local artist used Photoshop to breathe new life, or rather, new death, into the scene. --- The once-familiar artwork transformed into a chilling Halloween spectacle. In one version, the "Emerald Dread," the mine became bathed in a sickly green glow. The candle's light cast long, grotesque shadows that writhed on the damp mine walls like hungry serpents. The miners themselves were no longer simply skeletal; they pulsated with an unnatural green luminescence, their empty eye sockets now burning with an emerald fire fixed on something unseen in the depths of the mine. --- The other version, the "Infernal Glow," took on a fiery, infernal tone. The cramped mine became an oppressive orange inferno, lit by the flames of hell itself. The miners, no longer skeletal, appeared to be composed entirely of smouldering embers. Their forms flickered and shifted, their faces contorted in silent screams. The air itself seemed to crackle with an unseen energy, and the darkness beyond the candlelight seemed to writhe with unseen horrors. --- Both versions of the artwork evoked a chilling Halloween legend whispered amongst miners and art enthusiasts alike. The story claimed that Aarts stumbled upon a cursed mine, a place where the very souls of miners were trapped, forever doomed to toil in the oppressive darkness. The single candle, it is said, was the only thing keeping the restless spirits at bay. Should the candle ever extinguish, the legend warned, the vengeful miners would be unleashed upon the world, their skeletal forms infused with an unnatural power. --- These re-coloured versions of Aarts' "The Miners" have become a local Halloween tradition. They adorn shop windows, flicker on screens in haunted houses, and are even printed on Halloween greeting cards. The chilling imagery serves as a stark reminder of the dangers that lurk beneath the surface, a reminder that the darkness holds secrets best left undisturbed. As Halloween approaches, whispers of the cursed mine and its tormented souls fill the air, a chilling reminder that some legends are best left unpainted, or in this case, re-coloured.--- Original etching by Dutch painter Johannes Josephus Aarts "1881 - 1934" his works are now in public domain.

Good size and seems robust. Great for reducing plastic water bottle use.
I gave 4 stars not 5 as the mouth of the bottle is large which I found less easy to drink from. Printing was very good with clear colours but the image appears as stuck on rather than pressed in.

The product was good. The image was print on a label that is of high quality and looks like it stick the bottle completely. Would be perfect if it is directly print on the bottle. However, I feel the printing on label image more stand out and shining

These eco friendly water bottles are much loved by our guests. A durable lightweight alternative to the much hated plastic bottle. Perfect for taking to sports events or even just hiking. The personalised logo works well. It was in the correct place with good strong colours.
