Origine des Bédoins a Paris 1841

"Origine des Bédoins a Paris," is a lithograph by Honoré Daumier created in 1841. This satirical work depicts a caricature of Parisian street life, with a Bedouin-like figure and a wheelbarrow pushed by a man in working class attire. Daumier, a prolific artist of the 19th century, often used his work to critique social and political issues, giving a glimpse into the lives of Parisian society during this period. This piece, with its sharp lines and humorous exaggeration, exemplifies Daumier's signature style and mastery of social commentary through art.
