Gaisser Jakob Emanuel (1825 -1899)

Rococo Society at a Gluttony

A group of gentlemen sitting at a table in a salon, greedily eating a roast, on the left an elderly woman asking for a gift. An expressive narrative genre scene, which combines a historical motif with a critical undertone.
Characteristic genre painting by Gaisser, who liked to depict cheerful table parties of the 17th/18th century.
