About this work

A hand-colored print titled Menneske Aldrene shows a stepped arrangement of figures labeled by age from 10 to 100 years, moving from a boy with a hoop-like toy at left to an elderly man kneeling before a churchyard at right. A small arch beneath the steps shows a rowing boat with passengers on a river, and the background includes a classical building, rolling hills and a domed structure. The Danish verses inscribed below accompany the imagery.
