Guests of a dinner sit at a long narrow table in a magnificent room with an ornate ceiling. Two men and a young woman serve wine, one drawing a cork, the others spilling wine over the guests. Another waiter spills soup in an elderly guest's face. A woman and a little girl with a begging dog play tambourine and triangle at left.
