Oh, the hour has come. Engraving made by Sebald Beham after Barthel Beham, Germany 1548.

The Flickr stream of Kintzertorium adds:

"A naked woman lying on a bed, her head resting on a large pile of pillows on the left, her right leg resting on the floor. Approaching from the right death as a winged skeleton, who is holding up an hourglass towards the woman. Underneath the woman on the bed an elaborately draped piece of cloth, on the right a chamber pot under the bed."
