Les Chanteurs de rue

Charles Maurand after Honoré Daumier

National Gallery of Art

The image depicts two figures shown from their legs to their heads. The person on the left stands upright, facing forward with their mouth open. This figure has curly hair, a distinct nose, and wears a long coat with a bow tie, holding a violin and bow. The second person is situated behind, slightly bent forward, and turned to the right, gazing upward with slicked-back hair, longer coat, rolled cuffs, and stockings. They have one hand on a harp, fingers positioned as if plucking the strings. In the background, to the left, there is a potted plant on a ledge, and to the right, a multi-story building with windows. The scene is rendered in an intricate lined style.
