He looks like Humphrey Bogart.
Hmmm. I think the Comte should look for friendlier companions…like a nine-foot alligator or a great white shark.
Androgynous companions, snarky indeed!
Very interesting. One could look at this painting for a long time while coming up with various scenarios about what’s going on. One reason I find it compelling is because I’m familiar with the Weimar era in Germany.
Very suave!
