Unhappy !988 Econoline Dead Electric

My 1988 Econoline 350 (460 engine) drained last week the one year old battery and is absolutely dead: I mean, after recharging, no bulb, no starter, nothing which runs on electricity works. I checked all fuses in the box under the steering wheel: all are fine. I checked the wiring at the battery: negative reaches the frame fine, positive is at the relay under the hood. Any hints? I am absolutely clueless (and desperate).

Battery connections.

Did you check for power with a test light?

Sometimes one can run a charger only to not have battery really receive a charge
