Two huntsmen are seated at a table outside a wayside inn, one of whom turns to take on his knee a maidservant, a pretty girl who holds a jug in her right hand, and places a hand on her breast; the other (right) eats voraciously a slice of the roast beef. Behind, the innkeeper hurries from the door with a punch-bowl. At a horse-trough (left), placed under the inn-sign of a leaping stag, two saddle-horses are drinking; an ostler stands beside them."--British Museum online catalogue
