A scene drawn in red ink. At center is a skull flanked by two pansies upon a wagon wheel. The wheel is stable on top of a butterfly. Above the wheel is a scale; the left-hand side holds the crown and robe of royalty, while the right-hand side holds the patched coat of someone presumably less well-off. On the floor beneath the crown and robe is
an urn and two peacock feathers. On the other side, beneath the coat, are two crossed bones and a worn fedora. in the border are three phrases, in three different languages. The left vertical reads Mors aurem vellens, Vivite, ait, venio. The top center phrase reads The keeper of unknown redemptions. The right vertical phrase is in Greek. The bottom center contains the title text.
An open book by Gulielmi Harveii sits on a clothed table surrounded by more books, a skull, and some sheet music. The title page of the book reads "Guliemli Harveii/De Motu Gordis et Sanguinis/MDCXXVIII/Francofurti". Around the table are two seats that hold piles of books. There is a full bookshelf in the background. Above the image is the quote "Show me the books he loves and I shall know/The man far better than through mortal friends" --Dr. S. Weir Mitchell.

Two separate crests, one with a large flower; the other with a pair of antlers. Between this, on top, is a piece of armor adorned with a pair of antlers. Flowers and mantling make up the background, and this image rests on top of a mantle with two additional coats of arms, a skull, additional battle gear, flowers, and a caduceus that divides the mantle and comes between the upper two crests.
A man draped in cloth is seated on a coat of arms. He wears a mortar board on his head and holds a caduceus. There is a ship on the left; a skull, and a few books and papers at his feet.
