Un dernier toast is a 1843 ink by Honoré Daumier, a Romanticism work, held at National Gallery of Art.
You see a man standing on a table, holding a bottle and a glass, surrounded by people with different expressions. This scene is interesting because it shows how people react to a dramatic moment. The man's facial features are exaggerated, which adds to the drama. 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.
