1871
From the collection of National Gallery of Art
Voyons, monsieur Réac... is a 1871 by Honoré Daumier, a Impressionism work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This sketch shows two people walking on a road outside Paris. The person on the left is tall, wearing a fancy dress with a hat shaped like a basket. They’re holding something in their right hand. The person on the right is shorter, dressed in a long coat, and looks like they’re struggling to keep up. The word "PARIS" is written above their heads, and the background shows a city skyline with buildings and trees. The artist used quick, loose lines to draw them, making the scene feel fast and a little messy. Next, look up Daumier, Honoré to see more of his political cartoons.
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.
