"One Hundred Million" (1894) is a lithograph by Théophile Steinlen that depicts a wealthy man in a top hat being saluted by two soldiers. The satirical lithograph, a hallmark of Steinlen's style, likely lampoons the disparity of wealth in late 19th-century France, highlighting the contrast between the affluent elite and the working class. The piece is held in the Art Institute of Chicago.
