About this work
A young man has his hands tied behind his back by putti. A putto places a yoke on him and another offers him a glass of wine. At his feet lie the attributes of a dissolute life: sheet music, playing cards, dice and a chessboard. A putto flies in with the snake of prudence around his arm. Another putto holds the sword of justice in his hand.
