  1. A woman in her forties dressed in 18th century clothing holds her hands out to the ceiling of the room she is standing in, her eyes lifted up to the heavens in ecastasy. Around her lots of men and women dance and flail around her, some of their images blurry. We see paintings and candelabras on the walls.

  2. The image shows a young woman in the foreground, dressed in a burgundy or rust-colored garment, with her hands clasped together in what appears to be prayer or anguish. She's positioned at what looks like a wooden barrier or railing, with a large crowd of period-dressed townspeople gathered behind her, all wearing earth-toned clothing and various head coverings typical of peasants and commoners from that era.

  3. We see a collection of men and women of different ages wearing black early 20th century clothing. They all face away from the camera apart from a small blonde haired child who stands amongst them, looking directly at the camera with a sombre expression. We can see a staircase behind them.
