Very lively and colorful satirical scene depicting a man, probably a surgeon, who is doing a surgical operation on a man that is lying on a bed. The figure of the surgeon expresses a sense of wit and is characterized by bright and very strong colors. The reclining man has an incision on his shoulder and is turned from behind. The whole composition is characterized by a very strong use of color: the purple watercolors contrast with the oranges and reds of the background and, on the lower side, there is a total black floor.

This work has been realized by the Italian artist Mino Maccari (Siena, 1898 – Rome, 1989). Maccari was a popular Italian painter and engraver. He produced many artworks through different graphic techniques. He exhibited at important international exhibitions in the fields of art and graphics. In 1959, he became the director of the Academy of Fine Arts in Rome; in 1963, he won Antonio Feltrinelli's prize for painting and became president of the San Luca Academy. He realized many lithographs and etchings of satirical and political subject matters. He was also famous for erotic and sexual drawings. He has worked for many years at Il Mondo.
