La renommée des glaces

Honoré Daumier

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a man sitting on a wooden chair with his body leaning forward onto a table. He has dark, slicked-back hair, a long sideburn, and a receding hairline. The man is wearing a dark jacket with a high-collared shirt and a waistcoat. He is looking to the right with a crooked smile. On the table in front of him is a tray holding a glass, a small pitcher, and another small glass. There is a piece of paper or napkin partially covering the table. The background is plain.
