"A drinking scene; a drunken man carousing with two women, raising a glass into which Death, a crowned skeleton standing behind him, pours a liquid from a small bottle, a great quantity of steam or smoke rising off; one of the women lies asleep on the floor in front of the table, breasts exposed and a spilling glass in her hand, the other is falling off her chair at left, horrified, having spied Death; a dog and discarded flagon at lower left, a caged bird hanging from the ceiling, barrels of 'Old Tom' behind."--British Museum online catalogue.
