Une heure - Promenade au Luxembourg

Honoré Daumier

National Gallery of Art

The image depicts a man holding an open umbrella, wearing a top hat, long coat, vest, and trousers. His features are exaggerated, with a long nose and prominent chin. He is walking a small dog on a leash in a park setting with trees and water. In the background, a person is partially submerged in the water, looking up, and a group of people, including another man in a top hat, can be seen to the left. The illustration is filled with detailed line work, creating a whimsical and dynamic atmosphere.
