"The Flower Seller and the Undertaker" from The Complete Works of Béranger 1836

"The Flower Seller and the Undertaker" is an 1836 lithograph by the French artist J.J. Grandville. The artwork depicts a flower seller and an undertaker standing in a garden setting. The contrast of the two figures, one representing life and the other death, is a common theme in Grandville's work. The artist's use of caricature and satire is evident in the exaggerated features of the figures, creating a humorous and thought-provoking scene. The lithograph, now in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, showcases Grandville's mastery of the printmaking medium.
