The picture shows a detail of the right wing which represents the Gamblers' Level (after Fraenger).
The tumultuous group at right suffers for the excesses associated with gambling and taverns. Behinf them a rabbit carries his bleeding victim on a pole, a motif found elsewhere in Bosch's Hell scenes, but this time the blood spurts forth from the belly as if propelled by gunpowder. The hunted-become-hunter well expresses the chaos of Hell, where the normal relationships of the world are turned upside down.
