Description
Still life photograph depicting a skull, an old book, a peeled lemon, chess pieces, a church warden smoking pipe, and a bottle of honey. This photo is part of my ongoing series of images using symbolism from the classic Dutch Vanitas paintings, and memento mori.
All of these items could be used to symbolize the temporary nature of life and the passing of time. They serve as a reminder to use your time wisely, and not squander your days.
