From the collection of National Gallery of Art
Un philosophe is a 1864 ink by Honoré Daumier, a Impressionism work, held at National Gallery of Art.
You see four men sitting around a table in a smoky room. They're all engaged in conversation, with different expressions. The two men in the center are quite different from each other. The way they're posed and the looks on their faces tell a story. It's like you're eavesdropping on their conversation, wondering what they're talking about. Check out the work of artist: Daumier, Honoré to see more of his scenes of everyday life.
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.
