A drunken child chained by the devil; the child with horns, standing on an
open book while urinating on a table. Holding a short sword in his right hand
and a stick from which a crown is dangling over his left shoulder. The devilish
creature holding the chains on the right, flames in the background. Illustration
to Johann von Schwartzenberg, 'Ain buchle wider das zutrincken', published as
part of 'Der Teütsch Cicero', Augsburg: H. Steiner, 1535. Woodcut
