A vertically oriented black ink print depicts figures with light skin tones in high-contrast hatching. At the upper left, a man pulls at the skin of a skeletal figure whose clawed hands reach toward playing cards and coins spilling onto a table. Beside a bottle and glass, an empty chair sits to our left. In the lower right, a couple embraces in a tangle of limbs beneath a leaning ladder.
