Følgende historie fortælles om den berømt tyske maler Adolph Menzel.
En dag, da han sad på en resturant og nør sit middagsmåltid, kom en herre og en dame ind og tog plads ved et bord lige over for ham.
Damen var meget snakkesalig og da hun talte meget højt. Kunne han ikke undgå at høre næsten alt, hvad hun sagde, skønt det ikke var hans vane at høre efter andre folks samtale. De havde åbenbart lige besøgt en malerisamling, og hendes tåbelige bemærkninger om , hvad hun havde set, ærgrede ham en del.
Derefter begyndte hun at kritizere dem, der sad ved de andre borde, og da hun endelig sænkede stemmen til en hvisken, og både hun og herren på samme tid så hen på ham, forstod han , at han nu var genstand for deres samtal. Han tog da roligt sin skitsebog op af lommen og begyndte at tegne i den, i det han nu og da kastede et bliik over på damen. Lidt efter rejste herren sig, gik hen til ham og sagde vredt:" min herre, jeg forbyder dem at tegne min kone, jeg vil ikke have, at de skal gå omkring med hendes portæt i lommen"
Til svar rakte maleren ham sin bog og sagde i en uskyldig tone:" er det deres kones portræt?" han havde tegnet en gås.
