Work of Art

Dr. Ivan Nikolayevich received a bronze candelabrum as a gift from Sasha Smirnov, who was grateful for his cure. But the doctor is embarrassed: the candelabrum is very immodest - two completely naked naiads. The Doctor is thinking: who would he give this unfortunate present to? Suddenly he remembers that he owes lawyer Ukhov for his consultations. In turn, Ukhov, driven by the same feeling as the doctor, gets rid of the gift, giving it to the comic actor Shashkin on the day of the benefit. Shashkin, deciding that such a "work of art" could compromise him, sells the candelabrum to an antique bronze store owned by Sasha's mother Smirnov. And Sasha, delighted that at last he has found a match for the donated candelabrum, gives it to the doctor.
