Death and a black Demon appear to be in a battle over the gambler in green at the table. Death has his bony hand on the man's throat; while the Demon grabs his hair. The cardplayer at right tries to intervene with the Demon; while the player at left scoops up his winnings. Hand-coloured engraving by Chretien de Mechel from Hans Holbein's 鈥楾he Triumph of Death;' based on original drawings by Peter Paul Rubens; 1860.
