"De mens op negentigjarige leeftijd" (The Man at Ninety Years of Age), created by Gerard van Groeningen between 1569 and 1575, is a engraving that depicts an elderly man, leaning heavily on a staff, being helped by a younger man. The scene is framed by an ornate border filled with intricate details and a Latin inscription, referencing the inevitability of death. This engraving, now in the Rijksmuseum, showcases van Groeningen's skill in capturing human vulnerability and the passage of time.
