    The name of this painting is Der lästige Kavalier (The Annoying Cavalier). A more accurate name would have been Das Gruselige Kavalier.

    Gretchen tried to remember what her aunt had told her. Was it scratch his eyes out then kick him in the Johnsons, or kick him in the Johnsons then scratch his eyes out?

    (best viewed by Google Chrome which can automatically translate most pages as necessary) has info and links that point to info about this roughly jumbo envelope size painting.

    http://stanleykemp.blogspot.com/2014/03/whilst-looking-for-nothing-in-particular.html 

    both have info, or links that point to more info, about this artist, perhaps in addition to what’s pointed to by the title URL. So far, 4 works by him have been used here (5 times, with this repeat). 

    https://www.gocomics.com/that-is-priceless/2019/04/29?comments=visible 

    has the prior work (my comment there included the same artist info URLs). 

    https://www.gocomics.com/that-is-priceless/2017/11/20?comments=visible 

    has the first time this appeared here. Several webpages said it was his most famous work.

    Like all young women of her day, young Chloe packed a pair of long, lethal hat pins in her bonnet. Dieter was about to be introduced to them.
