Black-and-white illustration of an elderly, robed man with a long beard—depicted as the philosopher Diogenes—sitting inside a giant wooden barrel. He is focused on a small barrel in front of him, possibly preparing food or pondering something. The large barrel has numerous “Code Violation” notices pinned all over it, suggesting legal or bureaucratic scrutiny. The mood is stoic and surreal, with a satirical edge that contrasts ancient minimalism with modern red tape.

Apparently, living in a barrel violates seventeen different codes.
