A man standing behind pours over her the contents of a wine-bottle, in his right. hand he holds out a wine-glass. In the centre is a staggering figure wearing the ribbon and order of the Bath. His pocket is being picked by a plainly dressed man, while another holds his shoulder. Two men aimlessly flourish drawn swords. Another aims a blow with a long pole at a mirror. A courtesan has broken a mirror with a wine-bottle which she is waving in the air. In the background a woman, seated on a man's knee, is picking his pocket. On the floor in the foreground are broken wine-glasses, and a broken punch-bowl inscribed "the Constitution". The explanatory text asks "Who are the greatest drunkards? - Those at the helm - Who set the most glaring examples of adultery, fornication, &c -.."."--British Museum online catalogue
