Yes, Sir, your respectable air encourages me...

Honoré Daumier

Cleveland Museum of Art

Black and white drawing of two men in top hats. The man on the left has a tall cylindrical hat, a large nose, and a crumpled scarf around his neck. He wears a jacket with a vest underneath. His left hand is raised near the other man's chest. The man on the right has a shorter, wider top hat, a white shirt with a bowtie, and a jacket draped over his shoulders. He holds a cane in his right hand. Both men appear to be older, with facial features emphasizing their noses and expressions. They are surrounded by a thin-lined square with "TYPES PARISIENS" written above. There is small illegible text below the drawing. The background resembles aged paper.
