La Mort et le bûcheron (2nd plate)
Legros, Alphonse, 1837-1911 · [ca. 1854–1911]
Same composition as preceding plate number 141, in counter-part; signed "A. Legros" in lower right corner. The woodcutter lifting with difficulty his bundle of sticks asks Death to help him load it again. With the orb and rays of the sun; the entire plate has been extended; some escaped lines in the sky at right; the copper has been bitten too much.
