← Daumier, Honoré

The image shows a man walking down a street, leaning slightly forward with one hand tucked into his coat as he takes a stride. The man has a wrinkled face with a broad nose and is wearing a top hat. He has short and somewhat unkempt hair peeking out from under the hat. He is dressed in an overcoat, a waistcoat, a shirt, a cravat or scarf, tight-fitting trousers, and pointed shoes. In his right hand, partially hidden within his coat, he clutches some unseen objects. Behind him, there is another individual leaning on a cane or stick. The background features a loosely sketched street scene with buildings, and the foreground includes a published text and printed signatures. The image is framed in a decorative border.
