Description: The father lies on his deathbed, surrounded by his family, including a young child and an infant held by her mother. Through the open door other family members can be seen gathered in an antechamber. The Dutch artist and poet Jan Luiken (1649-1712) was responsible for drawing and etching this emblem and for the brief poem that accompanies it (below). The attendant Scripture texts are Psalm 39:4-5, 90:10-12; and 1 Peter 1:24-25.
