The sixth drawing in a series of twelve that follow a tradition of producing a series on modern morals, a tradition established earlier in the 18th century by artists such as William Hogarth. In this series, twin brothers are bestowed an equal fortune. One brother, Edward, husbands his wealth and on his death, passes on his fortune; whilst the other brother, Charles, squanders his, leaving his family destitute and In this sixth drawing, three men play at dice in a room at a club. The man seated at the table (left) and the man standing with his back to the wall both have piles of coins in front of them. Charles with a worried look stands at the table as he throws the dice. Another pair of men play cards at the table on the right. On the walls are pictures of a ship on a river along the shore with a tower, a painting of a race horse, and pastoral scene
