Yes, Louise. I not only loved the chapter, I enjoyed the Gaugin reference. I found Dupree's comparison of his own name to "Butterworth" even funnier.
The silly European nonsense of peerage is a wonderful resource for humor. Spain may have been the worst over the years: The Spanish nobleman who would rather starve than dirty his hands doing any kind of work is a cliche among Hispanic people.
