About this work

Two men: stereotypes of capitalist and worker. Left, a fat gentleman, smiling, hands in his trouser pockets. Right, a slimmer figure, mouth open, wearing a cap. He places his right hand on the left shoulder of the other, his left arm is raised and disappears to the right out of the frame.
