Une mine d'or qui dort

Honoré Daumier

National Gallery of Art

This is a drawing of two figures in conversation outdoors near a windmill. The image shows two characters with exaggerated and cartoonish features. The figure on the left is tall and thin, wearing a high top hat and a long coat. The figure on the right is rounder, wearing a shorter hat, a cape, and has a more animated expression. In the background, a windmill is visible. The drawing includes detailed lines for depth and texture, with a block of text in French underneath the image.
