About this work
Vanitas representation. A boy lies at the foot of a tree, next to him a skull and an hourglass. In the background, a village along a river. In the sky, a devil flies with a paper on which: "Omnia Tempvs Habent Svvm". From the clouds, a hand emerges with a board bearing the maker's signature and the date of the print. In the oval frame, a Latin border inscription.
