V'la une p'tite femme qu'est pas paresseuse ... c. 19th century

"V'la une p'tite femme qu'est pas paresseuse..." is a satirical lithograph by Honoré Daumier, created in the 19th century. The work depicts a woman in a voluminous dress, seemingly crying or covering her face, while a man struggles to open a door behind her. Daumier, a prominent social realist, often used his art to criticize societal norms and injustices, and this work likely satirizes the perceived idleness of women and the struggles of working-class men. The dynamic composition and expressive linework characteristic of Daumier's style contribute to the satirical effect, offering a glimpse into the social dynamics of 19th-century France.
