Vanitas (lat. vanitas, letters. - "vanity, vanity") - a genre of painting of the Baroque era, allegorical still life, the compositional center of which is traditionally a human skull. Such paintings, an early stage in the development of still life, were intended to remind of the transience of life, the futility of pleasure and the inevitability of death. The most widespread in Flanders and the Netherlands in the XVI and XVII centuries, some examples of the genre are found in France and Spain.
