Presumably a parody of David Tenier the Younger's print "A Flemish Club". In this version, also a tavern setting, four monkeys dressed in shirts and vests and two wearing plumed hats, sit around a bowl, one looking back at a companion who holds up a glass, one who smokes as he holds a tankard; the one holding a knife looks with surprise at the bowl of food
