"Mr. Dupin in His Little Shoes. Once Mr. Dupin noticed that one started a heated discussion about the reform of the election laws, he considered it the right moment to show himself at Clamecy" is a lithograph by Honoré Daumier created in 1850. It is a satirical caricature, depicting a man, likely a politician, making an exaggerated entrance, with a large bag slung over his shoulder. The image is drawn in a sharp, bold style, which was typical of Daumier's work, known for its incisive social commentary. The print is part of the series *Actualités*, a collection of lithographs that critiqued contemporary French society and politics. The print was part of a larger body of political satire created by Daumier, known for his use of humor and exaggeration to highlight the absurdity of political events.
