Unequal Love

Andries Jacobsz. Stock (possibly), 1608 - 1612

The older man with the long beard at right has plenty of money and takes a fancy to a young woman. He is addressed by Death, wearing a jester’s cap and holding an hourglass: ‘You fool, leave these young ones in peace, your time is nearly up, your money cannot buy her love’.
