"Les Moutons de Boisdeffre" is a black and white lithograph created by Théophile Alexandre Steinlen, a renowned French artist who specialized in capturing the essence of everyday Parisian life. The artwork depicts a crowd of people, likely a protest or a gathering of some sort, seen from a low perspective. Steinlen’s distinctive style is evident in the use of strong lines and expressive figures, creating a sense of energy and dynamism within the scene. The lithograph's title, translating to "The Sheep of Boisdeffre," suggests a theme of social commentary and critique, potentially referencing a specific event or political figure during Steinlen's lifetime.
