"The Triumph of Time" is an etching by Philips Galle, created in 1574. The artwork depicts the fleeting nature of worldly pleasures and the inevitability of death. The allegorical scene features figures representing various aspects of life, such as Time, Death, and Fortune, juxtaposed against the backdrop of a small village. The etching, now housed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City, is a powerful reminder of the passage of time and the transience of earthly pursuits.
