Created in 1891, this artwork offers a satirical glimpse into society's humor, politics, and social dynamics during that era. The image showcases an intricately detailed studio scene where Cynicus masterfully crafts his satirical cartoons. With a critical eye and sharp wit, he dispatches scathing satire through his work.

From the exaggerated caricatures to the witty captions accompanying each drawing, it becomes evident that Cynicus possessed exceptional talent for capturing both the essence of his subjects and their flaws.
