Vier Spanjaarden gooien hun koning met een laken in de lucht 1872

"Four Spaniards Toss Their King in the Air" is a lithograph by Honoré Daumier from 1872, currently housed in the Rijksmuseum. The satirical print depicts four men tossing a figure in the air, representing the instability and political upheaval in Spain at the time. This work is characteristic of Daumier's style, using caricature and exaggeration to comment on social and political issues. The artist's use of bold lines and stark contrasts adds to the dramatic nature of the scene, making the viewer question the fate of the king and the future of Spain.
