This is a French satirical illustration titled "Les Beaux Jours de la Vie" (The Beautiful Days of Life), with a subtitle "Un Diner Maigre" (A Lean Dinner). The artwork shows two men seated at a dining table with a white tablecloth, bottles, and glasses. They appear to be having a conversation about the price of their meal, with one person holding what appears to be a bill or menu. The illustration is done in a sketchy, charcoal or lithographic style typical of 19th-century French caricature art. The text at the bottom suggests they are discussing the high price of fish on the menu (39 francs) and commenting that the restaurateur is a heretic for charging such prices on a Friday, which has religious significance for dining customs. The image effectively captures the displeasure and shock of the diners at what appears to be an unexpectedly expensive meal. This appears to be plate No. 25 in a series, and the artistic style and subject matter are reminiscent of the social commentary often found in French satirical art of the period.
