Tiens, voilà un écriteau que ma femme a passé...

Honoré Daumier

National Gallery of Art

The image shows an elderly man standing in profile, with hands resting on a cane. He wears a top hat, a long overcoat, striped pants, and low-heeled shoes. Nearby is a second person, likely a woman, shown from the back wearing a long dress and a bonnet. The scene includes a sign on the wall that reads "Logement A Louer." The background depicts a street with buildings and a sidewalk.
