This drawing by William Tylee Ranney, titled "Tooth Extraction," depicts two figures engaged in a humorous scene. Created in the mid-19th century, the artwork is rendered in a simple yet expressive style, capturing the moment with a sense of immediacy. The figure on the left, likely a dentist, leans forward while examining the mouth of the seated figure, their expression a mixture of concentration and amusement. The detail of the seated figure's contorted face suggests the pain and discomfort of the procedure. The artist's use of light and shadow creates a sense of depth and realism, adding to the overall charm of the scene.
