Hand-colored tissue stereograph depicts interior view of shop where skeletons surround a man who is passed out or dead in a chair. The Devil stands behind a counter holding out a container to the man, presumably containing the substance that cause(d) the man's demise. A skeleton stirs a concoction in a large pot behind the devil figure. Skeletons on the street are visible through the open doorway.
Diables stereographs, also known as Journey into Hell stereographs, were among the most popular tissue stereographs issued from 1868 to 1874. They often depicted earthly sins that could lead one to hell.
