"Mr. Étien..." is a lithograph by Honoré Daumier from 1833 and is part of the series "Célébrités de la Caricature". Daumier was a prolific artist known for his satirical and often politically charged lithographs. The print portrays a man, likely a prominent figure from the time, in a caricatured and exaggerated style, highlighting the social and political commentary that Daumier's work is known for. The lithograph, now housed in the Art Institute of Chicago, is a testament to Daumier’s powerful artistic voice, which resonated with audiences in 19th-century France.
