Karikatuur van Lodewijk Filips I, koning van Frankrijk als rapporteur 1834

This lithograph, created by Honoré Daumier in 1834, is a caricature depicting King Louis-Philippe I of France as a "rapporteur," a French term for a person who reports on a matter. The King is depicted in a bed, while a figure on the right appears to be writing down his words. The artist, a prolific caricaturist known for his satirical works, likely uses humor to criticize the King's political decisions and social behavior. This work showcases Daumier's skill in capturing the human form and expressing social commentary through his art. Known for his political cartoons, Daumier's work often satirized French society, particularly the aristocracy and the political scene.
