Un Bonapartiste nouvellement converti c. 19th century

This satirical lithograph by Honoré Daumier, titled "Un Bonapartiste nouvellement converti," depicts a man in a state of frenzy, seemingly in a state of conversion to Bonapartism, likely referring to Napoleon III. The man's exaggerated features and awkward posture suggest the artist's critical take on the political climate and the rapid changes in public sentiment, typical of Daumier's artistic style. The lithograph, likely published in a satirical journal, embodies Daumier's signature use of caricature, a form of visual commentary on societal issues of the day.
