Whore beating a jester, Johann Theodor de Bry, 1596 Canvas Print

A jester is thrashed by a woman who holds him with one hand by the jester's cap and slaps him on the head with the other fist. In the tree behind the pair is a blowing cat; under the tree a barking dog. Under the print by Virgil Solis, which has been used as an example, is the caption: Hurn, Hund und Katzn, Rauffn, Peiln und Kratzn, ie. If you engage with whores, you will be beaten, undressed and chased by the dogs. Emblem No. 15 in Emblemata Saecularia, 1596 and No. 36 in second edition of 1611.
