Mark 5:24-26 (NLT)
24 Jesus went with him, and the crowd thronged behind. 25 And there was a woman in the crowd who had had a hemorrhage for twelve years. 26 She had suffered a great deal from many doctors through the years and had spent everything she had to pay them, but she had gotten no better. In fact, she was worse.

RESEARCH/ADDITIONAL NOTES:
This scene shows Jesus, his disciples & the crowd moving off up the shoreline, with the woman suffering from bleeding near the back of the crowd. She is the woman holding her middle with both hands.
This scene uses the same background, boat & two fishermen from the previous scene. The shore is littered with Basalt, a heavy, dark igneous rock, rounded by wave action. This scene uses the same background as Scene 01 in this series.
Here’s the scene without the figures in the foreground.
