About this work

You see two men from the waist up in this lithograph. They're having a conversation, but their expressions are different. One man looks stern, while the other seems more relaxed. Their clothes are also interesting. One man wears a tall top hat, and the other has a patterned scarf. This kind of detail suggests the artist is commenting on social differences.
