Together with another drawing by the same hand depicting the same man looking with a torch under the bed. Red chalk. Size of sheet: 22.4 x 32.4 cm. Verso: small study of a figure in brown ink.

A man lying in bed, covert by a blanket holding a chair on which pieces of cheese are piled up on the seat. A mouse wearing a hat is standing and waving a flag, while another one is climbing up the chair. The inscription is written in venetian dialect and translates: This is the fellow from Padua who has reached the end, reduced to the bed with pliers (or: … who reduced to the end, has arrived at the bed with the pliers).
