A monkey about to receive an injection in a veterinary clinic in Moscow. It is not entirely clear, if the monkey was indeed about to receive an injection. Peter Nosov, who was famous in Russia for his funny and cheerful photographs, made a composite of this picture using two different but apparently adjacent negatives.
