Ma femme... ça mord... ça mord! 1846

"Ma femme... ça mord... ça mord!", created in 1846 by French artist Honoré Daumier, is a satirical lithograph that captures the humor of everyday life. The work depicts a man fishing by a river, while his wife, seated behind him, appears to be engaged in an intimate moment with another man. Daumier's use of caricature and exaggerated features is characteristic of his social commentary, which often addressed the injustices and follies of 19th-century Parisian society. This lithograph exemplifies his signature style and its sharp wit.
