La veillée mortuaire
Legros, Alphonse, 1837-1911 · [ca. 1854–1911]
A room poor and neat; the dead person, a crucifix on her breast, is in a bed of old style, with a canopy and serge curtains, watched by three women in prayer; a round table at the head of the bed. The upper right corner has been filled in, and the whole composition reworked and extended in effect.
