The Dutch painter #GerritDou died #onthisday 1675.
This studio replica based on a painting by Dou, dated 1646, depicts a hermit in monkish garb surrounded by vanitas symbols. Alongside the skull, the hourglass and candle present recall the brevity and fragility of human life.
Dedicato a tutti gli studenti in DAD! Nel #Seicento in Olanda, si faceva spesso scuola la sera, a lume di candela. Un espediente per tenere i ragazzi lontani dalle strade e dai pericoli!@MIsocialTW
