"Term in the Form of an Old Man Warming His Hands" is an engraving created by Jean Mignon between 1535 and 1555. The artwork depicts a classical term, a sculpted figure that often symbolized abstract concepts, in this case, an old man with a beard and a hat, standing in a draped robe and warming his hands near a fire. Mignon utilizes the technique of engraving to create a detailed image with fine lines. This engraving is now housed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City.
