Au novel an, visite... a la tante Rabourdin is a 1847 ink by Honoré Daumier, a Romanticism work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This painting shows a lively scene of people gathered in a room. In the center, a man stands tall, wearing a dark jacket and white pants, while a woman in a long dress and headscarf stands beside him. To their left, a young boy looks up at them, and another woman stands behind him. The room has a dark wall with a picture frame on it. The artist has used a range of dark and light tones to create a sense of depth and atmosphere in the scene. The figures are arranged in a way that creates a sense of movement and energy.
