Here we see a lawyer with a client in an early Dutch city. The client pays the lawyer his fee, which will undoubtedly be (too) high. Death intervenes: he holds an hourglass, symbol of mortality and temporality. He warns the lawyer that his time of death will also come. Behind it the figure of a poor citizen in rags, with folded hands. Legal assistance will probably be too expensive for him.
