[Bones from the old cemetery of Tour Saint Jacques deposited in 1859]

View of a mannequin, dressed as a man and holding a candle, standing with its back towards the camera to look down a dark tunnel inside the Paris Catacombs. Artificial light illuminates the mannequin figure and the human bones that line the wall behind it. A stone plaque with a carved inscription covers the wall in the foreground on the right side of the image.
