A drunken mother who blithely lets her baby tumble from her arms. At her feet sits a half-naked,
near skeletal figure clutching a bottle of gin and a cup. There are other horrors to be found. On the
left of the image, a wizened human face can be seen gnawing at a bone alongside a dog. Above
them, a craftsman and a cook pawn their tools and utensils for drinking money. On the right of the
image, gin is poured into the throats of a small baby and a man in a wheelbarrow; a blind man has
his crutch stolen stolen as he stands Through an open section of wall above the distiller’s barrels, a
hanged man looks down on the wares that caused his downfall these all are the signs of disaster and
the situation that no body wants to face in this world this shows the cruel addiction of gin and what
kind of disaster it can create

Several groups of well-fed people engage in a variety of activities while drinking mugs of beer on the
left, two corpulent men hold big mugs of beer and one of them holds a huge leg of beef in his left
hand. In front of them sits a man holding a beer while sharing a romantic moment with a woman. To
the right of them, a couple of women with overflowing baskets of fish pause while enjoying a beer.
To their right, a young boy with mugs hanging on a rope slung over his back goes around selling
mugs of beer. He stops at the pawnbroker to hand him a beer through the peek hole. The pawn shop
is in some state of disrepair as people do not need to pawn off their belonging in this prosperous
world where people drink beer.

The other buildings are well-maintained, and the church steeple on the top is a sign that people
behave morally in this world full of beer. On the bottom right, a portly man enjoys his beer next to a
pile of books in a basket. On the left, a painter in ragged clothes blissfully paints a cheery picture of
men and women dancing around a mountain of barley these things depict the sign of prosperty
happiness and being wealthy it shows a good society and good nature people enjoying their life

conclusion
these drawings show Drinking gin is very bad thing which led to some serious problems in society
while beer is good thing to drink which does not led to the problems.
