William Hogarth's Francis Matthew Schutz in his Bed was commissioned by Schutz's wife, Susan, as a lesson against intemperance. The original painting depicted Schutz vomiting into a chamber pot, but this was overpainted by an unknown artist when it was felt Schutz's heirs would find the portrayal disrespectful.
