1845
ink
From the collection of National Gallery of Art
N'ayez pas d'inquiètoude ... is a 1845 ink by Honoré Daumier, a Romanticism work, held at National Gallery of Art.
You see two men talking on a riverbank, one gesturing and the other listening. They're well-dressed and seem to be enjoying themselves. The scene is pretty relaxed, with one man leaning on a cane. The men's conversation looks important, but we don't know what they're talking about. This kind of scene was common in Daumier's work, showing everyday life. He liked to show people being people, without making a big deal about it. Check out the work of artist: Daumier, Honoré, to see more scenes like this.
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.
