A brothel scene with a fat bawd at left leaning back in an armchair and sleeping in a drunken stupor. She spills her glass onto a dog who eagerly laps at the contents. At center, two couples embrace. An officer at center leans on a table and holds a bottle while slinging his leg over a woman's lap. At right another young woman wrestles with a middle aged man whose wig is held aloft by the woman behind him.
