Skeleton with Bow and Arrow - Antique Engraving Print

Reproduction of a 17th-century engraving by Gerhard Altzenbach.

The image shows Death as a skeleton holding a bow and arrow, surrounded by old text. An hourglass stands nearby, adding another simple symbol of passing time and mortality.

The scene belongs to the Memento Mori tradition and reminds the viewer that death can come unexpectedly and that human life is short.
