Premonition of death in painting

3 cases of subconscious premonition of death are presented. In these cases premonition found access to surface by means of painting. One may explain that phenomenon on grounds of determination. But an attempt for explanation by definition of a psychological and/or physiological pre-setting is done. If that pre-setting is not realized by an accidental death, it may be fulfilled by suicide, somatic complaint as a manifestation of masked depression or by overt depression. Flashes of the subconscious pre-setting may reach consciousness in dreams or in paintings.
