About this work

A hooded figure in a fur-trimmed robe bends over a wooden lectern, measuring with large compasses, while a skull, scattered books, and manuscripts lie on the table beside him. A young boy peers around a doorframe at the right, and the stone wall is marked with faint inscriptions, including the word Ananké, in this 1889 work by Luc-Olivier Merson.
