Description
A 'busy', but sobering print depicting the procession of a dying old man to the afterlife. Attractively coloured. Accompanying the old man on his inevitably journey are a clergyman in front of the procession, followed by a lawyer, an official, a doctor (with large syringe) and man carrying the coffin (undertaker?). A bat flies overhead.
Interestingly, the old man's stirrups look like chamber pots!
