Historical Connection In 16th-century Tudor courts, memento mori motifs—latin for "remember you must die"—were prominent in high nobility jewelry, portraiture, and chamber art. Symbols of skulls and entwined figures served not as macabre displays, but as poignant courtly reminders to treasure love, honor, and vanity in the present life.
