Description:

 A man lies collapsed on the street in the foreground, his discarded hat beside him, while a woman hurriedly retreats into a doorway, a cloth pressed tightly over her nose and mouth. In the background, two mourners follow a horse-drawn hearse.

The caption reads in the original French: Souvenirs du choléra morbus.
