About the Piece

This painting depicts a scene filled with irony and satire: a woman in high heels and a tight skirt stands with her back to the viewer, while next to her is the famous cartoon character Scrooge McDuck. He holds a stack of money in one hand and shows his middle finger with the other, as if expressing some kind of dissatisfaction or defiance. The black-and-white background and the woman's attire create a sharp contrast, while Scrooge McDuck is highlighted with vivid colors, further enhancing the dramatic effect of the scene.

Inspiration:
The inspiration for this painting comes from a reflection on the relationship between money and power in modern society. Scrooge McDuck, a character symbolizing wealth, is used here to portray an attitude of money worship and the rebellious sentiment it can incite. The woman's figure represents a symbol of authority or control. Through this visual conflict and contrast, I hope viewers will find humor while also contemplating the complex relationship between money, power, and individual freedom.
