Un invité à un dîner d'hippophages: Vous offrirai-je encore un peu? C'est excellent, n'est-ce pas?

National Gallery of Art

This is a drawing of a dinner scene. Three figures are seated at a table with plates, bottles, and a wine glass. A horse skull is placed on a plate as a centerpiece. The expressions of the figures vary. One appears shocked, another looks on inquiringly or animatedly, and the third scrutinizes his food closely. The illustration is detailed and monochromatic, using shading and linework to create depth and texture. It includes elements of dark humor and social commentary.
