1845
ink
From the collection of National Gallery of Art
Une maitresse a l'opera is a 1845 ink by Honoré Daumier, a Romanticism work, held at National Gallery of Art.
You see two men in fancy clothes talking at the opera. They look like they're from different worlds, with one being more serious and the other more relaxed. This contrast is interesting because it shows how people from different backgrounds interact in a shared space. Check out the work of artist: Daumier, Honoré, to see more of his social commentary.
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.
