I find it powerful too and it raises the question of whether it reflects an artist in decay or an artist at his peak.

How would we know the difference?

I don't see a conflict in an artist being the near the end of his biological life, and also a peak in descriptive artistic powers.

I don't think parent was saying there's a conflict. I think they were saying it's hard to tell the difference between the two possibilities.
