Vois-tu petit, t'as tort... 1849

"Vois-tu petit, t'as tort..." (Do you see, little one, you're wrong...), a lithograph by Honoré Daumier from 1849, depicts a satirical scene of two individuals in a kitchen setting. Daumier, known for his social commentary through caricature, captures the absurdity of life and the stark realities faced by ordinary people. The image shows a young boy and a stern-looking man both clad in simple attire, highlighting the societal divisions of the time. The title, a direct address to the young boy, suggests a playful yet critical tone, inviting viewers to contemplate the social commentary Daumier intended. This lithograph is a testament to the enduring power of art to spark reflection and challenge societal norms.
