She is accompanied by two Deaths; one of whom; playing on a stickado; or wooden psalter; precedes her. She seems more attentive to her rosary of bones than to the music; whilst the other Death impatiently urges her forward with blows. Hand-coloured engraving by Chretien de Mechel from Hans Holbein's 鈥楾he Triumph of Death;' based on original drawings by Peter Paul Rubens; 1860.
