Description
A frantic man in a dressing gown wields a large pair of compasses and holds a bill on which the word “thesis” can be seen written in French. A second man sitting on the floor looks scared and is careful to stay out of the way.
The caption reads in the original French: Breloque tremblait de tous ses membres.
