1865
ink
From the collection of National Gallery of Art
Monsieur, vu l'absence complète ... is a 1865 ink by Honoré Daumier, a Impressionism work, held at National Gallery of Art.
The painting shows two men and three dogs in a simple landscape. The men are interacting in a friendly way, with one leaning forward and the other standing tall with his hat raised. This contrast between their postures adds a sense of humor to the scene. The artist used this scene to highlight everyday moments, which is similar to the work of artist: Daumier, Honoré.
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.
