In the bottom-right corner of the painting, a despondent figure is portrayed being pulled towards an armchair by a dismal presence. The emotional turmoil is vividly depicted as an anxiety-inducing green monster looming at the top of the illustration. This monstrous manifestation captures the fear and distress gripping the central character, adding a poignant layer to the narrative.

Notably, the figure's memories and prayers leave imprints on his favourite chair, symbolizing a connection between his personal history, reflections, and spiritual contemplations. The chair becomes a repository of his experiences, emphasizing the significance of this piece of furniture in the individual's life.

A compelling element is the ghost-like head of a crocodile, presented in white. This spectral representation is reminiscent of the individual's ancestors and carries connotations of power and wisdom. The presence of ancestral figures suggests a source of guidance and strength, contrasting with the chaotic and fearful elements elsewhere in the painting. This duality of dark emotions and ancestral connection adds depth to the emotional and spiritual dimensions of the artwork.
