Dalek Design


Any Dr. Who fan will get the reference (and the recent re-casting of the namesake role, not to mention the 50 year anniversary, has Who in the news all over again). Since 1963, one of the good doctor's main rivals in the science fiction series is a nemesis by the name of "Dalek" - a recurring killing machine that seems to follow the time traveler through the ages. This great German vase by Friedrich would have been made during the same early 60s era. Coincidence? "Who" knows!
