From the collection of National Gallery of Art
J'veux monter tout de suite la-dedans ... is a 1858 ink by Honoré Daumier, a Impressionism work, held at National Gallery of Art.
You see two figures from behind, a man with an umbrella and a child pointing upwards. They're looking at a big, floating structure that looks like a dirigible. This artwork is interesting because it shows a moment of wonder in a simple, urban scene. To learn more about the method used to create this piece, 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.
