"Une promenade d'agrément aux Champs-Elysées" (A Pleasant Stroll on the Champs-Elysées), a lithograph by Honoré Daumier, depicts a satirical scene of a woman in a long dress being nearly trampled by a group of laborers carrying a large plank. Daumier's work is characterized by its social commentary and caricature, often exposing the hypocrisy and inequalities of 19th-century French society. This print is a humorous yet pointed critique of the contrasts between the wealthy and the working class in Paris.
