Henri-Gabriel Ibels

National Gallery of Art

This is a drawing of a menu accompanied by a sketch of a robed figure and a pig. The image features a handwritten menu titled "Menu du Réveillon" offered at "Théâtre Antoine," listing various dishes such as oysters, foie gras, salad, cheese, fruits, dessert, coffee, liqueurs, and champagne. On the right side of the image, there is a sketch of a figure dressed in robes, who appears to be communicating with a pig shown below them. The words "L'esprit de Sacrifice" are inscribed above, and below the pig, there's a note signed "Saint Antoine."
