Comment trouvez-vous ce petit vin-la... is a 1845 ink by Honoré Daumier, a Romanticism work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This sketch shows a rowdy group drinking wine by a barrel. One man in a top hat holds a glass, while others lean in, laughing. A kid in the background watches, and a barrel tap drips onto the floor. The artist used quick, sketchy lines to show movement and humor. The scene looks like a lively tavern, full of personality. Next, check out lithography to see how this drawing was made.
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.
