"Tiens, le moineau a été se percher sur cet arbre, il est très facile à tirer", created by Honoré Daumier in the 19th century, is a satirical lithograph that depicts two hunters discussing the potential prey. The scene showcases Daumier's characteristic wit and sharp observation of social behavior, using caricature to highlight the absurdity of the situation. The hunters, rendered in a simple, gestural style, are engrossed in their conversation, highlighting the banality of their pursuit. The inscription beneath the image reveals a humorous dialogue between the hunters, revealing the futility of their endeavor and their lack of real skill.
