The image shows an artistic depiction of a person lying down, appearing to be in a sleeping or resting position. The person is stylized and abstract, with minimal facial details and short hair. They are covered by a striped blanket or cloth. Beside them, there are geometric shapes resembling buildings or structures, suggesting an urban setting. The surroundings appear textured, possibly indicating a curtain or wall in the background. The text "HALBER SCHLAF" is above the image, and there is a German poem below it. The page number "36" is printed in the bottom left corner of the page.

Halber Schlaf (Half Sleep) (headpiece, page 36) from Georg Heym: Umbra Vitae (Georg Heym: The Shadow of Life)
