The Last Leaf | IX | Moments| Full Explanation| Class 9| YouTube The Last Leaf is a touching story. It describes the sacrifice made by an old painter. He sacrificed his life to save a young girl, an artist’s life. Greenwich Village was situated to the west of Washington Square. This village became a colony of artists. Here, two young girls, Sue and Johnsy, also lived. They had set up a joint studio on the top floor of a three-stoery building. These girls came from different places. But once they had met and become friends. Now they lived like sisters. In the month of November, pneumonia attacked the artist’s colony. A number of people died. Johnsy also fell ill with pneumonia. Sue tried her best to nurse Johnsy. But her condition worsened. She became very weak. The doctor told Suc that Johnsy’s chances of recovery were very few. She had lost the will to live. He advised Sue to make Johnsy take an interest in life. Only then could she be saved. There was an ivy creeper on the back wall of the next house. In the cold, stormy, wind, its leaves were falling. Johnsy developed a fancy that she would also die when the last leaf of this creeper fell down. Sue came to know of this fancy of Johnsy. She told Johnsy that there was no link between the last leaf and her life. But Johnsy did not listen to her. She said that there were twelve leaves left on the creeper. These were falling fast and she would die when the last one fell. She said that she expected that all leaves would fall in the night. Then she fell asleep. After Johnsy had fallen asleep, Sue went downstairs to meet Behrman, an old painter. He was past sixty but was a failure in art. He was always talking about the masterpiece which be was going tcfpaint. But he had never started it. He was a drunkard. He earned a little through his paintings. Sue told Behrman about Johnsy s fancy. Behrman decided to help her. That night it was raining and snowing heavily. Old Behrman took a ladder and a few colours and went out. He found that all the leaves of the creeper had fallen. But he painted a leaf on the wall. Next morning, when Johnsy got up, she looked out of the window. She was surprised to find that the last leaf was still there. She knew that fierce winds had blown during the night. Still, the leaf was there. She realised that it was a sin to wish to die. Her will to live returned. She started recovering. The next day, the doctor said that she was out of danger. That afternoon, they came to know that old Behrman had died. Sue told Johnsy that he had painted the leaf on the wall when the last leaf fell. He had gone out in snow and rain in order to paint the leaf. He had caught pneumonia and died. This leaf was, in fact, his masterpiece. #thelastleaf #newvideo #class9 The last leaf #summary The last leaf class 9 The last leaf #cbse The last leaf #ncert
