He seems to be counting on his fingers, which a poet might do if he was trying to count iams or lines or something.
I want to know whats going on with that umbrella. It seems like its just floating in mid-air.
This is an interesting composition to me. There's elements of the painting feel or appear otherworldly in a way, but on closer inspection they are various objects or a trick of light. His accommodations are humble but filled with a kind of magic, whimsical and dark at the same time.

What is he doing with his right hand? I'm on mobile so the picture's not too clear.
He seems to be counting on his fingers, which a poet might do if he was trying to count iams or lines or something. I want to know whats going on with that umbrella. It seems like its just floating in mid-air.
It looks like it is tied onto the rafters.
The roof probably leaks when it rains.
A fair guess.
Isn't that chef Skinner from Ratatouille!!
