-
A angry old hag sitting in a chair is lowered into a body of water by jeering crowd. A little boy on the right urinates in her direction. A cat in a bowl floating in the water howls in her direction. A calf sits between the large man blowing a trumput. Various people in the crowd show their merriment by dancing, hitting a pot with a hammer, blowing a horn, and drinking gin
