1847
ink
From the collection of National Gallery of Art
En famille is a 1847 ink by Honoré Daumier, a Romanticism work, depicting Bathing, held at National Gallery of Art.
You see a quiet scene with three people inside: an older woman, a child, and another woman leaning on a railing. The people in the scene seem calm and comfortable with each other. The background is simple, with water and tiled walls. This artwork is a nice example of a simple family moment, and to learn more about the process used to create it, look into the technique: lithography.
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.
