"Voila! t'es devenu rentier, moi médecin, lui..." is a lithograph by Honoré Daumier created in 1841. This satirical work depicts three men, exaggeratedly drawn with large noses and prominent eyes, in a humorous conversation. Daumier was known for his social commentary through his art and this print likely depicts the anxieties of the working class in 19th-century France. The title translates to "Well! You've become a rentier, I'm a doctor, he..." The meaning of the missing phrase is open to interpretation, further enhancing the satirical nature of the work.
