The story
Reginald had always known he was different — not in intelligence, but in presentation. While his kin rooted in mud, he studied the art of the cravat and the proper angle of a hat tilt. Tonight, after three sherries and a failed attempt at waltzing with the footman’s boot, he paused before the mirror, wondering if the world would ever take a well-dressed swine seriously. The sherry was warm. The hat was askew. He sighed, inwardly, and adjusted his cufflinks.
The brief
A plump hog stands upright in a dimly lit Victorian parlor, wearing a slightly crooked bowler hat and a silk cravat, one hoof resting on a mahogany side table beside a half-drunk sherry glass, the wallpaper faded gold and the light slanting low through lace curtains.
The painting and the story were written from this same scene, so the two describe one moment.
