All is Vanity is a drawing by Charles Allan Gilbert. At first it appears to depict a skull. However, upon further inspection, it is revealed that the ‘eyes’ of the skull are merely a woman’s dark-haired head and its reflection. The ‘nose’ is really the reflection of some drapes or curtains that have been pulled back. A collection of bottles on the vanity in the picture make up the ‘teeth’ of the skull. And the ‘jawbone’ is really a cloth draped over the vanity. The top of the skull itself is the

It has thin arms folded gently across the woman and a blank face, connected by a thin and long neck, with only her nose to provide
