Reciting Eulogies
Description
This cartoon is composed of four images. In the upper left, a seated molla reads from a book to an assembled group of men. In the upper right, a man carries several bags and walks along with the assistance of a walking stick as if on a journey. In the middle, several men sit, feasting on a giant platter of pilau. On the bottom , a menacing-looking rotund man sits next a low table. The table is covered by money.
