A strange picture just turned up in our back garden

A large, framed picture has turned up in our back yard. It looks like this painting by Van Gogh:

Except in the foreground there is a familiar looking guy who looks like Boris Becker with glasses and white hair reading a copy of Le Meridian newspaper drinking a coke. Any ideas what this is about? It looks satyrical but I can't tell who the guy is meant to be, let alone why this big picture turned up in our yard. Incidentally we live next door to a pub whose garden backs onto ours so I can only assume it's got something to do with that.

Check again to see if it really is a Van Gogh. That would be nice!

Some drunkards probably pinched it from t'pub as a bet or something.

still doesn't explain what it's meant to represent though. we don't know if it's an advert (and if so, for what? the coke bottle isn't prominent enough and neither is Le Meridian). Weird!
