The cook is busy whipping up delicious dishes but his goose is cooked, and Death suddenly appears to grab it, skewer and all.
In Kruspe's drawing (to the right) Death carries the skewer over his shoulder like a gun, just like in Basel (picture to the left), in Bleibach and on Meyer's engraving. The idea probably originated with Holbein's abbot.
