J'ai trois sous is a 1839 ink by Honoré Daumier, a Romanticism work, held at National Gallery of Art.
You see a man standing alone in front of a restaurant, wearing a tall hat and dark coat. He has his hands in his pockets and looks like he's watching something. This painting is interesting because it shows a contrast between the man outside and the people inside the restaurant who are talking to each other. You can learn more about the artist who made this, 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.
