This drawing shows a frog in fancy clothes strutting toward a mouse sitting at a table. Another mouse is eating at the table, which has plates and a vase of flowers. A clock hangs on the wall, and a hat lies on the floor. The frog’s long legs and fancy waistcoat make him look like he’s off to a party. The mice seem calm, ignoring the frog’s approach. Check out the Victoria and Albert Museum to see more of this artist’s playful work.
