Italian school (XX) - Memento Mori

Beautiful painting titled "Memento Mori", executed in oil on a plywood panel, probably dating from the first half of the 20th century, originating from the ecclesiastical circles of Salento (Southern Italy).
It is unsigned and comes with its original elegant gilded wooden frame.
The indicated measurements refer to the artwork including the frame; the painting itself is 24 x 18 cm.
A human skull is depicted resting on a book, symbols that remind man of the brevity of life and its inevitable end.
The quality of the painting is very high, as you can see from the photos.
Attention, the work shows the inevitable signs of aging, both on the painting and on the frame, but there is no serious damage that diminishes its beauty.
