The image shows two separate illustrations. 

In the first illustration, two men stand facing each other in front of a door with a curtain. Both men have large, round bellies. The man on the left has short, dark hair and wears a dark suit with a white shirt underneath. The man on the right has a prominent mustache and holds a top hat in his left hand. Another man is partially visible behind the curtain.

In the second illustration, a man is seated at a lectern, reaching forward to place a top hat on another seated person with wild, flowing hair, obscuring their face. The seated man is depicted in formal clothing. In the background, a densely packed crowd of spectators is outlined. The style is sketchy and satirical, with exaggerated figures.
