Un échantillon de ce qu'on appèll...les beaux de paris c. 19th century

"Un échantillon de ce qu'on appèll...les beaux de paris," is a satirical lithograph by Honoré Daumier, created in the 19th century. This caricature, part of his series "Types Parisiens," depicts two men, likely Parisian socialites, with exaggerated features. The men's expressions are comical, their bodies rigid and poses self-important. Daumier, known for his social commentary, uses humor to expose the vanity and superficiality of the Parisian elite. This work exemplifies Daumier's mastery of lithography and his insightful observations on the social fabric of 19th-century France.
