"Une Panique de Lilliputiens..." (A Panic of Lilliputians) is a lithograph by Honoré Daumier from 1851. The print satirizes the fear of universal suffrage in France, depicted through a giant man trampling over a group of tiny, panicking figures. Daumier's caricatures are known for their sharp wit and social commentary, using exaggeration and symbolism to highlight the absurdity of political situations. The work is a commentary on the political landscape of mid-19th century France.
