1864
ink
From the collection of National Gallery of Art
Moi ce que j'aime dans la salle de sculpture ... is a 1864 ink by Honoré Daumier, a Impressionism work, held at National Gallery of Art.
You see two men sitting on a bench in a museum. They look relaxed, but their formal clothes seem out of place. One man looks bored, while the other seems interested in the art. Their expressions are what make this scene interesting. It's like they're having different experiences in the same place. To learn more about this style, 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.
