La Mort et le bûcheron (2nd plate)
Legros, Alphonse, 1837-1911 · [ca. 1854–1911]
Possibly unique. 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. Before the orb of the setting sun and much work on the ground; the clothing of Death almost white.
