Man shaves face with a dull razor

An old man shaves his face with a dull razor while seated at his shaving table. The man catches hold of the brush and hurriedly coats his face with the foaming soap and makes a second attempt at removing his beard. He wipes his cheeks. He scrapes and scrapes, making painful facial expressions as the razor grows duller with every stroke. The old man winces every time he draws the razor across his face.
