This is a black and white etching depicting a disturbing scene. Two emaciated, elderly men are seated on the ground, seemingly engaged in the act of anointing the feet of a goat that is standing upright on its hind legs. The goat is the focal point, its body rendered with a rough texture and exaggerated features. It appears to be enjoying the attention, with its head tilted back and mouth open. The men are gaunt and skeletal, their ribs visible through their skin. They are depicted with a sense of desperation and subservience as they tend to the goat's feet. A small bowl is placed between the men, likely containing the ointment or liquid they are using. The background is minimal, with a few sketchy lines suggesting a barren landscape. The overall tone of the image is dark and unsettling, conveying a sense of degradation and absurdity. The etching is titled 'Aguarda qué te unten' at the bottom, which translates to 'Wait for them to anoint you'.
