"An Irishman sits beside a table, smoking, while a comely maidservant shows him two dishes of meat. His bundle is tied to a stick; a dog sits beside him. On the wall is a (framed) 'Game of the Goose': three concentric ovals divided into small sections with a goose in the middle."--British Museum online catalogue
