Achilles Véron withdrawing into his tent.

Honoré Daumier

Cleveland Museum of Art

Black and white drawing of a rotund man in a helmet and cape with a shield and a torch on his head. The man has a large belly and is barefoot. He holds a round shield with "PATE DE REGNAUD" written on it. He appears to be entering a tent or behind curtains. He is depicted with feathers on his cape and a cloth wrapped around his face. The image includes text at the top that reads "ACTUALITES" and at the bottom "Achille Veron se retirant sous sa tente". The background shows a faint image of a pyramid.
