Billedbeskrivelse
This is a drawing of a person rising from a grave. The figure is emerging from behind a grave marker, with one leg in a kneeling posture and the other coming forward. The figure is wearing loose clothing and holding an object in one hand. There are musical notes or ribbons flying from the object. The background features a graveyard with crosses and red flower-like elements. Text at the bottom reads "Debout, les Morts!" The drawing style combines pen and ink with watercolor or wash.
