In this scene, ropes hang ominously on the left of two weightless females who perch on stools in front of a rose-colored background. They are shoeless. In the Catholic tradition in which Lyanne was raised, bare, or discalced, feet symbolize humility when on sacred ground. These women are seemingly preparing for the afterlife.
