Repos de la France

Honoré Daumier

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a man seated on an ornate chair with animal head carvings on the armrests. His legs are spread out and rest on cannon barrels. He wears light-colored trousers and a dark jacket, with a white top hat partly covering his face. Beside him stands a woman covered in a shawl, facing towards him. The plain background highlights the figures and the chair.
