Doctor examines giant worm-creature wearing a top hat.
A doctor examines a giant worm wearing a top hat, which is, notably, the second strangest thing in the room. The head preserved in a jar on the mantle appears to be the most composed figure present, which says something about the other occupants. The snail near the fireplace has the posture of someone who arrived early and is now deeply regretting the decision.

The worm's resigned little frown is what gets me — it already knows the diagnosis. And the framed specimen on the wall echoing the patient on the table is a sly touch. Every corner of this room rewards a second look.

The deadpan Victorian gravity is what sells this — a physician treating a top-hatted worm with total professional calm, snail and jar-head included. Pure Gorey energy. The cross-hatching makes the whole room feel like it's holding its breath.
