| Description |
English: An erotic jousting match, wherein a prostitute kneeling on a bed, her skirts pulled up to her waist and wearing a tall feather in her hair, vigorously handles at the same time the members of a thin man behind her at left, and a stout man in front of her at right, who angrily raise their fists to each other; on a mantelpiece at right, a statuette of a leering, bearded and bespectacled satyr playing the cello.

Licensing
This image is in the public domain because it is a mere mechanical scan or photocopy of a public domain original, or – from the available evidence – is so similar to such a scan or photocopy that no copyright protection can be expected to arise. The original itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
This tag is designed for use where there may be a need to assert that any enhancements (eg brightness, contrast, colour-matching, sharpening) are in themselves insufficiently creative to generate a new copyright. It can be used where it is unknown whether any enhancements have been made, as well as when the enhancements are clear but insufficient. For known raw unenhanced scans you can use an appropriate {{PD-old}} tag instead. For usage, see Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag.  | ||||
