Abstract:
Two cartoon panels illustrating the effects of overindulging in alcohol. Night (left panel) depicts a laughing man and friends seated at a table set with decanters labeled "Port" and "Sherry," holding a goblet of wine in his raised right hand and fruit in his left hand. Morning (right panel) depicts the same man lying in bed tormented by two imp-like figures personifying wine--Sherry hammers the man's head while Port prods his stomach with a red-hot poker.
