"At the Deligny Baths - The Ladder at 4 p.m." is a lithograph from Honoré Daumier's 1858 series *Croquis d'été*, which depicts a crowded public bath in Paris. Daumier was a renowned social satirist who used lithography to capture the everyday lives and struggles of ordinary Parisians. The scene, depicted in a dynamic and expressive style, showcases the humor and absurdity of the human condition, as men of all shapes and sizes jostle for space on the ladder and in the water. This work is a testament to Daumier's mastery of capturing the essence of daily life with a keen eye for detail and a touch of social commentary.
