From the collection of National Gallery of Art
Le portier de Mr Vautour is a 1854 ink by Honoré Daumier, a Impressionism work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This painting shows a woman and two children with a man on the other side. The woman wears a bonnet and dress, while the kids wear sailor clothes. This tells us about the people in the scene. The man's face is interesting - it looks like he's thinking. To learn more about this kind of art, look up 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.
