Isaac David Quesada Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 Hi, I am new to this forums and will love to discuss and read about art history, however at the moment I write because I am working on a subject and need to know pieces of art (sculptures, paintings, etc) where waiters are represented, from all times, I mean greek, chinese and all type of civilizations any time in history. If you could help me telling me which ones come to your mind I will be most gratefull. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bearcat1 Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 Only male waiters? Or do waitresses/bar maids count? For male waiters, Hopper's Nighthawks is the first thing I thought of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
