Ars Moriendi | Temptation of Impatience | 15th Century

From the Ars Moriendi blockbook (c. 1450) — the dying man beset by demons of impatience, tormented by his own suffering while angels stand ready to assist. The first and most visceral scene in the manual of dying well: the body's pain as the soul's first test. The oldest illustrated guide to dying with dignity still in existence. Catalog No. 9101.
