About This Design

A Vanitas with Books and Skull | Gerrit van Vucht Poster

A Vanitas with Books and Skull | Gerrit van Vucht Poster

A Vanitas with Books, a Skull, a Candle and Various Objects on a Table by Dutch painter Gerrit van Vucht (1610–1697) is a powerful 17th-century still life reflecting themes of mortality and the passage of time. The skull and extinguished candle symbolise the inevitability of death, while the books and objects represent worldly knowledge and possessions that ultimately fade. Van Vucht’s use of shadow and symbolism embodies the Dutch vanitas tradition, offering both beauty and contemplation. Perfect for wall art, greeting cards, or gifts, this vintage masterpiece also serves as a striking choice for gothic decor or Halloween displays. Use the design tools to add custom text or personalise the image.

I hung this in the stairwell of our house, near some other Renoir pictures. My daughter says it looks like she is looking at her when she walks up the stairs. it's called "The Excursionist", she is holding a walking stick. Renoir was an impressionist, I don't think this is an actual person. The finished framed picture arrived and looks better than the online pic - Beautiful!

Absolutely superb Art Deco poster. The colours are vibrant, sympathetic to the era and perfect for use. I framed it and hung above the entrance to my Art Deco inspired lounge room. Stunning! The print is precise, clear and of an excellent standard. It was cleverly packaged so there wasn’t a blemish or crease. Perfect!
