| Description | Print shows the interior of a room during an initiation ceremony with a naked man kneeling on the back of a goat while holding on to its horns, a man uses tongs to pull the nose of the initiate and another appears about to spank him with a grill-like implement; the room is filled with other men, most wearing some regalia, such as aprons with a skull and crossbones motif, and many hold tools with which to inflict pain. A hooded and robed figure standing on the left may be a grand wizard. |
