Eugène-Louis Lami’s *Caricature. No. 6. Les Amateurs de Paysage* is a satirical hand-colored lithograph created in 1828. It depicts a group of people, including an artist with an easel, gathered on a rocky outcrop in the countryside. The artwork is a playful commentary on the popular pastime of landscape painting in the early 19th century. Lami was a well-known French artist known for his illustrations and caricatures. This print, now housed in the Minneapolis Institute of Art, is a small but significant example of his work.
