This piece is from a sausage series done by Peter Fischli and David Weiss.  The pair have been working on collaborative work since 1979 and this series is one of the first series they've done together.  I found the series very entertaining, it shows simple everyday moments using all types of sausage.  As well as this one there are images of sausages looking at different slices of sausage "carpet" and there's even a sausage car accident.  I'm not sure why they chose to use sausage to show everyday lives but it's quite entertaining.

This image was done by William Lake Price, it is a scene depicting Don Quixote in his study.  Price liked to recreate scenes from both literature and history and photograph them.  Price was originally a painter who specialized in watercolor but he started photographing in 1854 and is well known for using combination printing.
