Un Diner chez Véry

Honoré Daumier

National Gallery of Art

The image shows two individuals, focused on their upper bodies. The person on the left stands facing forward, holding a cane under his left arm. He has a stern expression, curly hair, and wears a top hat, overcoat, and high collar with a scarf or tie tucked under his chin. His hands are crossed near his waist. Beside him is a shorter figure holding a tray. The background has indistinct text and illustrations, and the foreground includes a caption related to the setting's theme.
