Bordeaux-Laffite 1836

"Bordeaux-Laffite" is a lithograph created by Honoré Daumier in 1836. It depicts a caricature of a man seated at a table, enjoying a glass of Bordeaux wine. Daumier was known for his satirical lithographs, often lampooning social and political figures, and this work is typical of his style. The exaggerated features of the man, as well as the humorous details such as the wine bottle and the empty plate, suggest a lighthearted critique of bourgeois indulgence. This print is considered a fine example of Daumier's ability to capture the essence of his subject matter with wit and precision.
