Description

A black and grey hourglass forged from bones holds a hollow-eyed skull in the top bulb, with droplets falling onto a melting candle below. Bold outlines and stippled shading create a gritty, illustrative feel. The hourglass and candle symbolize time slipping away and a life burning down, while the skull underscores mortality and impermanence, forming a stark memento mori.
