Eh! bien monsieur et mes trois termes...

Honoré Daumier

National Gallery of Art

The image shows two men standing face to face. The man on the left has hunched shoulders, hands in his pockets, a serious expression, an angular nose, and wears a tall top hat. He is dressed in a dark overcoat and striped trousers. The man on the right is bent forward with hands clasped behind his back. He has a receding hairline, sharp facial features, and a focused gaze. He wears a long coat. The background has a textured wall with swirling patterns and lines suggesting panels or a doorway.
