Description
The skull is a bit obvious as a symbol of time passing, but it looks suitably forgotten. Midjourney's bookshelves are a bit odd, but withal I like the composition. It might be the library in M R James' creepy story The Tractate Middoth, frequented by a dead scholar protecting his favourite niece's inheritance:

Among the books behind the skull are ones on Ptolemaic astronomy, Lamarckian evolution, Lysenkoist biology, caloric, phlogiston, the ultramundane flux, and who knows how many forgotten philosophies.
