Oui madame ... ces animaux-la ... is a 1858 ink by Honoré Daumier, a Impressionism work, held at National Gallery of Art.
You see a man and a woman standing by a railing, with the man leaning casually and the woman looking at him. The woman is dressed in a period gown, and the man wears a top hat. There are also illustrated animals behind them, which adds a playful touch to the scene. To learn more about the method used to create this artwork, 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.
