The scene shows the young newlyweds at breakfast in a large, well-furnished room but in a state of disorder as after a night's entertainment. The night's activities are suggested by the book "Hoyle on whist" open on the rug in the middle of the floor, a deck of cards on the floor below a card table in the next room, and in the foreground a violin in its open case sits on the back of an overturned chair, a second violin case beside it. The steward walks away in disgust at his apparent failure to engage either the husband or the wife in addressing the wad of bills that he has in his hands. Through an archway, a dishevelled and sleepy servant scratches his cap; the walls are decorated with paintings of religious figures
