Though the story is meant as a lesson of repentance, artists often focused on the brothel scene, which allowed them to explore the son\u2019s morally questionable choices. This print depicts the interior of a brothel as if it were an opulent home from the 1600s. Three women, a man, and a child distract the son to steal his coin purse. One woman holds a triangular glass of wine, highlighting the role of wine in the son\u2019s carnal desires and eventual ruin.",
