The image depicts a framed print with a central scene that includes a large bottle of dark liquid, a man kneeling with his hands clasped in prayer, and several figures including a man playing a guitar and cherubs. Text is present in both Spanish and what appears to be Latin. The Spanish text on the left reads: "En la ermita de licor arrodillado Jose-pillo se muestra fervoroso, I con el eco dulce y armonioso Se queda cada vez mas elevado. Triste se mira por que no ha logrado Que su garganta pruebe el generoso Agradable licor, y humildemente Suplica, qual veras en la siguiente." The Spanish text on the right reads: "Oh Madre del licor, mi protectora! No desprecies la suplica, ni el ruego De este tu fiel devoto, que te adora Y que por ti fallece de amor ciego: "Ta vez, Madre amorosa, que no llego "Con el labio al licor, que me enamora, "Lubridme sin tardanza la cabeza. "De Malaga, Xeres, Tinto y Cerveza." Beneath the central scene, there is a Spanish caption: "CADA QUAL TIENE SU SUERTE, LA TUYA ES DE BORRACHO HASTA LA MUERTE." This translates to "Each one has his fate, yours is to be a drunkard until death." At the very bottom of the print, there is smaller text that appears to indicate the location of publication: "De Dallera, pta de lo del Boliche en Madrid en 1831." This indicates that the print was published by Dallera, located in Madrid, in 1831.
