From the collection of National Gallery of Art
Un Faux vase du Japon faisant... is a 1855 ink by Honoré Daumier, a Impressionism work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This lithograph depicts a woman sitting at a table, intently examining a vase. She is dressed in dark attire and has her hair pulled back. Three men stand behind her, observing the vase with interest. The scene is set in a room with a table and chairs, and the overall atmosphere appears to be one of curiosity and admiration. The artist's use of lithography creates a sense of texture and depth in the image, drawing the viewer's eye to the vase and the woman's reaction to it. The contrast between the dark clothing and the light-colored vase adds visual interest to the scene. For more information on the artist who created this lithograph, look up Honoré Daumier.
