Arabic term

قاطعة يديها حول صدرها

Arabic to English Art/Literary Poetry & Literature
Hi everyone,

Does this mean crossing her arms across her chest? In this scene, an old woman is getting ready to die.

ثم أصلحت ثويها ورسمت إشارة الصليب قاطعة يديها حول صدرها وأغمضت عينيها

Thank you!

Crossed her arms over her chest.

Crossed arms like an Egyptian mummy.
