Nice etching with a satirical flavor depicting some unknown characters sitting around a table. On the right, a man with no hair looks towards two female figures. One of them rests her elbows on the table. A typical restaurant scene can be seen in the background.

This work has been realized by the artist Mino Maccari (1898-1989) . He was an   Italian writer, painter, engraver and journalist, winner of the Feltrinelli Prize for Painting in 1963. His work was also part of the painting event in the art competition at the 1948 Summer Olympics. For his pictorial work rich in evident chromatic accentuations and quick brushstrokes, the violent drawing combined with the vivid line of the graphic sign of his engravings, he is recognized by the complete artist criticism.
