1852
ink
From the collection of National Gallery of Art
Laisse-moi regarder encore ... papa! is a 1852 ink by Honoré Daumier, a Impressionism work, held at National Gallery of Art.
You see a crowded scene at an art salon with people in old-fashioned clothes. The scene is interesting because it shows how people reacted to art back then. They're looking at paintings and talking to each other, and you can tell they're all feeling different things. You can learn more about this kind of artwork 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.
