Summary
Print shows a man with canine facial features that match his dog's, is swinging a large camera like a club at a man whose clothing is in tatters and who is sprawled on the floor, the dog biting his ear; the furniture is overturned and broken, as are several bottles, and the wall hangings are askew.

New York City from 1835 to 1907 headed first by Nathaniel Currier, and later jointly with his partner James Merritt Ives. The prolific firm produced prints from paintings by fine artists as black and white lithographs that were hand-colored. The firm called itself "the Grand Central Depot for Cheap and Popular Prints" and advertised its lithographs as "colored engravings for the people". The firm adopted the name "Currier and Ives" in 1857.
