The image depicts a woman standing facing slightly to the right. She is wearing an elaborate dress with puffy shoulders, a textured bodice, and a long skirt. Her head is adorned with a patterned headscarf or hat, and she holds flowers in her left hand and an hourglass in her right hand. A skeleton stands behind her with an arm draped across her back. The background shows grassy terrain with the skeleton's foot stepping over a bone. A column of text, reading 'ONMEM IN HOMINE VENYNAM ADOLET MORSMIS,' is on the right side of the image. The letters 'FB' are in the upper left corner.
