Une Famille qui vient d'apprendre... un impot sur les chiens

Honoré Daumier

National Gallery of Art

This is a drawing of dogs in different postures. The image shows a group of dogs of various sizes and breeds gathered in an interior space, with one dog standing on hind legs howling, another with its front paws raised, and the rest seated or lying down. The setting has wooden walls, and the dogs' poses suggest emotion and activity. The lines in the drawing emphasize the dogs' reactions.
