In this scene, the young husband is visiting a back alley doctor with a prostitute in tow. Everyone but the doctor is sporting black patches meant to cover up the sores caused by syphilis. The husband has come to complain about the mercury pills he has been given as a "cure" that do not seem to be working. |
