Very witty! You've given a new meaning to the painting, too. He really looks like he's about to pop out of his frame in his attempts to overhear what the little group are gossiping about - he looks rather shocked by it :)
A great eye to make meaningful in a different way this painting in the foreground. Once exhibited, the works escape to their creators and become an inspiration for others :)

An interesting study. There's a bit of tension with 2 distinct subjects but the concept of 'art and discussion of art' is compelling. A good post.
