Un réconciliation, scène de haute comédie ...

Honoré Daumier

National Gallery of Art

This is a drawing of two individuals embracing, both with serious expressions. The central figures have exaggerated features and wear formal attire. They look in opposite directions with their arms around each other. In the background, other figures watch. The style and features suggest the work of a caricaturist. The text at the bottom indicates a satirical or humorous intent, depicting feigned reconciliation.
