A vertically oriented lithograph depicts a rotund child and a bloated pig in a room. In the center, a child with light skin tone wearing a striped shirt raises a glass to their lips. To our left, jars sit atop a wooden cupboard, while the pig lies flat in the foreground. Behind them, a framed sketch features a spindly figure and a dog. French text frames the textured newsprint page.
