The Old Man and Death information


The Old Man and Death is one of Aesop's Fables and is numbered 60 in the Perry Index.[1] Because this was one of the comparatively rare fables featuring humans, it was the subject of many paintings, especially in France, where Jean de la Fontaine's adaptation had made it popular.
