The artwork depicts two men, their expressions exaggerated and humorous, creating a sense of social commentary. The drawing is characterized by Daumier's signature style: bold lines, stark contrasts, and a focus on capturing the essence of his subjects. This lithograph is a testament to Daumier's skill in blending social observation with artistic expression.
