In the work of James Groleau, skeletons serve as powerful symbols—visual anchors that explore themes of mortality, transformation, and the unseen structures of life. Memento Mori prints such as this one, are meant as a reminder that we all will die, showing the vanity of pearls and earthly riches that don't travel with us after life.
