Toujours la comète is a 1857 ink by Honoré Daumier, a Impressionism work, held at National Gallery of Art.
The painting shows a woman standing and a man sitting in a soft, gentle space. This scene feels quiet and intimate. The way the woman and man are posed tells us about their relationship. It's like we're seeing a private moment. Check out the technique: lithography, used by artist Daumier, Honoré, to create this scene, and learn more about it.
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.
