Baroque Whimsy of two extremely plump, petite women in lavish black-and-crimson baroque gowns with grotesque corsetry, delicate monstrous minions in tiny velvet frock coats serving demitasse coffee, ornate iron candelabra and morbid floral garlands, all within a stone-walled gothic morning room, dramatic chiaroscuro lighting with a single harsh ray of dawn cutting across the scene, deep sepia, coal black, and blood red palette, painterly textures with wet-on-wet oil paint.
