Oh god, it's our own ћ/ć of the -ić fame! Thank you for this unexpected laugh.

PS And note the lovely mentions of some earlier artists, as well as the author's signature. The scroll and books at the rat's feet are inscribed with "Blek le rat", "Keith Haring" and "Basquiat". The artist is signed as @el_basuero.
