An engraving depicts a dimly lit dungeon scene where a man in chains sits on the floor, looking up at a young person holding a candle. The candle's light illuminates the figures and the surrounding stone walls. An original work by James Ridley, writing under the pseudonym Sir Charles Morell, based on the "Arabian nights."
