Vanitas of Life

Published:
2.5K Views

Description

Vanitas/ latin..meaning/emptiness/vanity

And loosely translated corresponds to the meaninglessness of earthly life, and the transient nature of vanity.
It is a message that tells the viewer that the pleasure of life only lasts a moment, because time is limited...
Live fully the present moment.

As a style of painting, vanitas rose to prominence in the 16th and 17th centuries, primarily in the Netherlands, Flanders and France.
