Gibier qui peut être chassé en toutes les saisons is a 1845 ink by Honoré Daumier, a Romanticism work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This image shows a group of men in old-fashioned clothing, standing together and looking at a piece of paper. They are all wearing hats and coats, and some of them have beards. One man is holding the paper, while the others are gathered around him, looking at it with interest. The men are standing on a cobblestone street, with a few objects scattered around them. In the foreground, there is a small, round object that looks like a hat or a bowl. The background of the image is a plain wall, with no other details visible. The image appears to be a scene from everyday life, perhaps in a city or town. The men's clothing and the setting suggest a historical time period, possibly the 19th century.

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.
