This painting shows a man in a long robe, holding a skull in one hand and a cross in the other. He has dark hair and a beard, and is barefoot. The background is a landscape with hills and trees. The man's robe is a simple, earthy color, and the skull and cross are prominent symbols. The landscape behind him is muted, with soft colors and gentle shapes. The artist who painted this is the same one who created many other works of art, including portraits and landscapes.
