1871
From the collection of National Gallery of Art
Ce qui ramènera... nos députés à Paris is a 1871 by Honoré Daumier, a Impressionism work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This print shows a crowd of people in a busy city street, all heading left. A woman in black holds a baby. A man in a top hat carries a cane. Daumier made this during a time of political upheaval in France. He used a rough printing style to mimic newsprint. The messy lines add energy and urgency. Look up Daumier, Honoré to see more of his sharp political art.
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.
