An engraving from a 17th-century Dutch emblem book or similar work, likely a “meditation on death”. It depicts an allegorical figure of death as a skeleton wearing an abbess’s habit (nun’s clothing) and a crown.

The Latin inscription on the shield, “DVL CIA LINQUE BANT LAMEN TIS LUMINA VITA”, is likely an intentional slight variation of a more common phrase. The intended meaning is believed to be: “Wailing, they were departing from the sweet lights of life”. This is an example of memento mori, a common artistic theme that serves as a reminder of the shortness of human life and mortality. The image itself is reminiscent of the “Dance of Death” (Danse Macabre) theme prevalent in European art. Kuva vähem
