DescriptionAn elderly man lies in bed, propped up on a large pillow. He wears a nightshirt and is covered with a sheet or blanket. His right hand rests on his breast. His eyes are closed, and he appears to be dead or dying. A man and a woman stand behind the bed. The woman wears a bonnet and a shawl. Her hands are clasped. The man wears a coat, vest, shirt, necktie, and pants. A second man is seated in a carved armchair at the left. He holds a handkerchief to his mouth. A girl kneels in the foreground. She hides her face in the bedclothes and appears to be weeping. Fringed drapery with a valance and tassels frames the scene at the left, right, and above. Patterned carpet is on the floor.
