Au Camp de Chalons

Honoré Daumier

National Gallery of Art

This is an illustration of three figures standing together. On the left, an adult man with a coat and top hat holds an umbrella over himself and the woman next to him. The woman in the middle wears a bonnet and a dress with a bustle. She holds the man's arm, and her face is shown in profile with her hair styled up. A child is on the other side, pointing towards a group of soldiers practicing or marching in the rain in the background. The scene is outdoors with faint outlines of tents or structures suggesting a camp.
