Figure descriptions
A dying knight lies on a bed. He wears a full set of armour, but his helmet is placed
under his head. A crowd of men and women
surround him. There is a man by his head and another man by his feet, both of whom
are kneeling. Two cloaked men stand near the
knight’s head; the man on the left holds a platter with a goblet, and the man on the
right gestures toward the knight. Near the
knight’s feet, a man and a woman turn away from the knight; the woman cries and the
man wraps his arms around her. A woman sits on
the knight’s bed. The rest of the illustration is dark, but this woman’s dress is
light. Other figures can be partially seen on
either side of the illustration. There is an open archway centered on the back wall,
which shows a figure either walking away from
or towards the knight. A book lies open on the floor next to the bed. Full-page illustration.
