The image you are describing likely refers to "Magdalena with the Skull," a painting by the Baroque artist Georges de La Tour. It depicts Mary Magdalene, often represented in art with a skull as a symbol of mortality and contemplation. The candle flame also serves as a metaphor for enlightenment and inner reflection. The combination of these elements suggests themes of vanity, life, and death.
