This lithograph, "Eh! Mère Godichet c'est pas étonnant ...", is a satirical work by French artist Honoré Daumier, created in the 19th century. The artwork depicts two women, one reading a newspaper while the other seems disheartened. Daumier was known for his social commentary, and this work likely lampoons the absurdity of 19th-century French society, specifically the way news and information were disseminated and consumed. The lithograph is a powerful example of Daumier's ability to capture the essence of everyday life and the absurdity of human behavior through social satire.
