1854
ink
From the collection of National Gallery of Art
Paris enrhume is a 1854 ink by Honoré Daumier, a Impressionism work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This painting shows four people wearing big hats and scarves. They look funny and bundled up for winter. The artist made their faces and bodies look silly on purpose. It's like a joke about how people dress in cold weather. The people in the painting have big noses and mouths, which adds to the humor. To learn more about how this image was made, 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.
