Bed Pan
1994

A painting depicting a patient reclining on a hospital bed with eyes closed, possibly asleep or sedated, with two IV bags hanging beside them. A healthcare worker or visitor stands at the bedside holding a clipboard or tray, wearing a pink shirt and looking at the patient with a concerned expression. The setting suggests a medical environment with a somber mood.
