About this work

You see two men talking on a Paris street beside an open horse carriage. One wears a tall hat and waves his hand. The other tilts his head, listening close. This is a lithograph, a black-and-white print made on stone. Daumier used quick, scratchy lines to show how people move and talk. If you like this sharp, funny style, look up Daumier, Honoré.
