A man lies on a plank with his eyes closed. He wears a circular flat-topped hat. A pillow supports the man’s head. To the right of his face is a small wooden rectangle with nails in it. The man’s right hand, which is missing its fingers, is curled up toward his chest. His left hand is flat against his stomach. He wears a long draped robe. His outer garment has long, low arm holes. Curled against the man’s feet is a small dog facing right. The wood is a medium brown and has visible cracks, weathering, and worn edges.
