Abstract:
In this color postcard, a nurse administers medicine to an injured man. The nurse, dressed in a long white dress, apron and veil, stands at the man's bedside. Behind her is a table draped in white with bowl, candle, and bottles. There is also a black wooden chair with a woven cane seat. The man is sitting on the bed with his legs over the side. He is wearing red pants, brown shoes and a blue and white striped shirt. His left arm is in a sling. The nurse has her left hand on his head, tipping it back slightly, as she holds a spoon with medicine to his lips.
