Figure descriptions
An old man lies in a bed made of pillows and blankets on the floor of a hut. The old
man appears to be dying. The room is
dark, but light streams in through a window and illuminates the old man. A woman,
who is turned away from the viewer, kneels over
the old man and holds one of his hands in hers. Another man watches the scene from
the side of the bed while leaning against a
column. 3/4-page illustration contained within a single-ruled border.
