Notes:

A sketch, almost a cartoon. A lady with a hat and long dress. A man wearing a bow tie and tweed sporting jacket. A boy, barefoot, holding a bottle or can up to his mouth to drink. It is signed PR 1900, and attributed to Paul Rieth.

A dialogue is printed below the picture.

Google Translate gives me:

Munich Child

“Well, little boy, what do you mean by what you and I are like?

“I just mean: Englishmen!”

“Ah! And what about you?”

“Well, because they haven’t even finished their beer yet!”

The German is (i think: Fraktur is tricky at times):

Müncher Kind’

“Na, Kleiner boy, uas meinst Du denn jetzt, uas uir so sind?”

“I moan halt alleweil: Englander!”

“Ah! Und uieso?”

“No, weil’s no’ net amal mit dem Krügerl ferti worn san!”

I made a separate image of the barefoot boy.
