Created between 1625 and 1638, this masterpiece is housed in the esteemed Collection of Fine Art Museum of North Carolina.

The composition showcases various symbols associated with mortality and vanity; skulls, hourglasses, extinguished candles, and decaying fruits serve as reminders of our mortal existence.
