"Allons bon!... voila que'elle me cueille une rose...", a lithograph by Honoré Daumier from 1846, is a satirical depiction of a man being cuckolded. The woman in the scene is picking a rose from a bush, while her companion looks on in dismay. Daumier was known for his social commentary and often used humor to expose the hypocrisy of the French upper class. The lithograph, with its characteristic exaggerated figures and expressive lines, is a testament to Daumier's keen observation of human nature and his ability to capture the essence of a situation in a single image.
