1841
ink
From the collection of National Gallery of Art
Je suis le plus grand ennemi des factions is a 1841 ink by Honoré Daumier, a Romanticism work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This painting shows three people playing cards with big reactions on their faces. The artist used big features and dark shadows to make the scene look funny and serious at the same time. This makes the picture interesting because it says something about how people behave in groups. You can learn more about this style by looking 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.
