Un jour ou l'on paye cinq francs c. 19th century

"Un jour ou l'on paye cinq francs" (A Day When One Pays Five Francs) is a lithograph created by the French artist Honoré Daumier in the 19th century. This caricature captures a scene of social commentary typical of Daumier's work. It satirizes the absurdity of social class differences in 19th-century France by depicting the reactions of various people to a single, unassuming pumpkin, representing a social commentary on the price of goods and the accessibility to basic necessities. The lithograph is a striking example of Daumier's sharp wit and his ability to capture the essence of social injustice in his work.
