1851
ink
From the collection of National Gallery of Art
Comment ... tu as encore acheté un ... chapeau ... is a 1851 ink by Honoré Daumier, a Impressionism work, held at National Gallery of Art.
You see a couple talking in a simple room. The woman wears a bonnet and cloak, while the man holds a top hat and newspaper. He looks surprised, and she gestures to him, showing their emotions through their poses and clothes. This scene is created using lithography, a technique that allows for detailed prints, similar to those found in the works of artist Daumier, Honoré.
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.
