- Abstract
-
A grotesque-looking cook with a huge nose and a wart-covered head uses a rolling pin to roll out dough on a table with his knobby hands as mucus drips from his nose and drool streams from his gapping mouth. Behind him, a pretty maid leans against his back as she reaches up to a shelf to bring down a full platter of food as a mouse scampers off. On the table are two jars labeled "Minc'd meat for savoury pattes" and "Snuf box".
