Waiter and Customer 

"Waiter and Customer" is a pen and ink drawing by French artist Jean-Louis Forain. Forain was well known for his satirical drawings of Parisian life and this drawing is no exception. It depicts a waiter and a customer in a cafe setting, the waiter appears to be laughing as the customer seems to be in deep contemplation, possibly of the menu. Forain's use of line and shading creates a sense of movement and energy. The drawing captures the moment of a casual, everyday scene, highlighting the inherent humor and absurdity of social interactions. The work is a testament to Forain's sharp eye for detail and his ability to capture the essence of human nature.
