Pfft! I knew this one was going to be a challenge, but I couldn't resist giving it a bash. Apologies as usual to the original artist, in this case Arnold Böcklin. I think I need to apologise to Myfanwy too. Not her best look.

An edited version of Plague, a painting Arnold Böcklin. The original shows Death riding on a bat-like winged creature who travels through a street in a medieval European town with people dying in the street. In this version the bat-like winged creature is now a slightly deformed knitted emotional support chicken called Myfanwy, and she is ridden by Friend, a simple drawn figure, wielding Death's scythe.

Oh, and thanks again to @TheBreadmonkey for pointing me at the original painting (responsibility, as ever, my own tho')

You can see the original here. It's quite something.
