Death and the Old Man (Tod und Greis) from Dance of Death (Totentanz)

Description

The image is a sketch of a person's bust, focusing on the head and shoulders. The person is facing slightly to the side with their gaze directed upward. Their facial features, including large eyes and a prominent nose, are depicted with strong shadowing and lines. The dark, textured hair appears almost unruly. Light sketching suggests loose clothing draped over the shoulders. In the background, there is a skull rendered in a similar sketch style above and behind the person's head. Heavy shading and cross-hatching blend the background into the person's form, creating depth and intensity in the artwork.
