The Thieving Devil, engraving, 1682

An engraving of a horned devil in a dark suit reaching into a wall cupboard in a brick-walled room, while a woman in a white cap and apron stands behind him near a chair. A broom leans by a paneled door, a framed picture hangs on the far wall, and the tiled floor recedes toward a window.
