Oh! M'sieu l'avocat, tachez de ... is a 1848 ink by Honoré Daumier, a Romanticism work, held at National Gallery of Art.
You see a man in a dark robe standing with two women in fancy clothes. They're talking to each other. The man looks serious, while the women seem more relaxed. This scene is interesting because it shows how people interacted in 19th-century France. It gives us a glimpse into their social lives. To learn more about the method used to create this image, 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.
