Art Explained by A Writer - Absolutely No Agreement!
.jpg)
Hey, you!
The dandy who was having his shoes shine gestured at the woman crossing the square. She looked in his direction. Who was that guy?
Hey, you I mean you, come over here!
Slowly she walked in the direction of the man who opposed her at first sight. Such a rude caveman. He commanded her as if she was his dog.
Impatiently, he beckoned to her, "Come on hurry up I don't have all day!
Annoyed, he put his other foot on the shoe shine. She raised an eyebrow and looked at him slowly from head to toe. What an ill-mannered, haughty guy. The shoe-shiner winked at her and a faint smile appeared on her face.
And?
She did not answer but looked him straight in the eye. Impatiently, he gestured to the shoe shiner and said: how much longer will it take?
Sir?
Well, what will it cost? 50 cents or 1 pound? Not that you are so special, be happy that I make such an undecent girl like you this generous offer... You're not as young as I expected so I assume your age will at least provide the necessary experience. The carriage is waiting.
Absolutely no agreement (1797) -Louis-Léopold Boilly
A coin was dropped at the feet of the shiner.
It's not enough, by far not, she replied.
Not? He hesitated but kept his head high. Fine, 1.50 it's my highest offer.
Absolutely not!
No agreement? Perplex he stared at the woman who dared to reject him.
There are no exceptions. The prices are the same for everyone and for those with extra wishes... she paused... a ticket will cost you at least 15 pounds if not more.
15?! 15 for what? Should I pay for your diseases you filthy who..
The theatre is that way.
She turned around and continued her way without wasting a second thought on the high-hearted man who mistook her, a respected and famous actress, for the cheapest slut he could get.

Creo que sí, ambas saben fingir y aparenter lo que no son para no morir de hambre, jeje.
Los caballeros machistas como este presente en la obra creen que los demás están a su servicio. Por ello se sienten con el poder de "ponerle precio a los demás".
Me encantó cómo se resolvió la historia. Gracias por estar. Un abrazo.

I don't know about her attire though. Respectable? see through everything? hmmm
I think what she wears is more like theatre outfit, it doesn't fit into the period. Some things just like habits, bad behaviour and assumltions are from all ages.
Thanks for commenting.

Interesting interpretation. I see now why the mention of actress...
One needs to use a bit fantasy x history or so but who knows it was just a dream.
Un patán se atravesó en el camino de esta actriz, que supo ponerlo en su lugar, seguramente sus dotes histriónicas le ayudaron a mantener la compostura.
Para hablarle con tanto desprecio, parece que estaba bastante desesperado, o quería pisotear su autoestima, se equivocó de dama.
¡Está desesperado y con esa actitud! Tarde o temprano aparecerá la persona adecuada para poner a este hombre en su lugar. El limpiabotas sabía quién era. Esperemos que este 'señor' haya aprendido algo. Buenos modales para empezar.
