is a powerful etching created by George Cruikshank in 1848 as part of the Temperance Movement. This artwork depicts a scene from daily life in Victorian England, shedding light on the devastating consequences of alcoholism. In this intricate composition, we see a dimly lit interior where men and women gather for entertainment amidst an atmosphere of intoxication.

With ill-gotten gains in hand, he engages in risky gambling at a card table while surrounded by fellow gamblers lost in their own vices.
