Vanitas Still Life with a Tulip, Skull and Hour Glass, by Philippe de Champaigne.

At the end of a major Roman victory, the commanding general would be thrown a huge party and parade through the city of Rome called a Triumph. During the Triumph, the commander was the center of the show, and everyone was cheering for them calling them a God among other things.

Remember, death."
