From the collection of National Gallery of Art
Arthur, vous m'aviez promis un trône... is a 1841 ink by Honoré Daumier, a Romanticism work, held at National Gallery of Art.
You see a man and woman in a simple lithograph. They are shown from the waist up. The woman wears a low-necked dress and the man is in a dark suit. The way they look at each other is interesting. Their expressions show a quiet moment between them. This artwork is an example of work done using a technique called lithography.
Honoré-Victorin Daumier was a French painter, sculptor, and printmaker, whose many works offer commentary on the social and political life in France, from the Revolution of 1830 to the fall of the Second French Empire in 1870.
