← Daumier, Honoré

The image shows a caricature of a man sitting with his legs crossed. He is leaning back slightly against a bench, with his arms folded across his chest. The caricature emphasizes his exaggerated features, such as a large, elongated head with pronounced cheekbones and a slightly pointed chin, wide and expressive eyes, and dark, disheveled hair combed back. He is wearing a dark coat with a high collar, a white shirt, light-colored pants, and dark shoes. The background includes faint outlines of other figures engaging in conversation.
