L'eau est-elle bonne? ... / Une pleine eau

Honoré Daumier

National Gallery of Art

This is a drawing of various figures in a bath. The image depicts cartoonish characters with exaggerated features, engaging in activities at a public bath. Some are in the water while others are outside with distinct facial expressions. Geometric architectural elements in the background suggest a bathhouse setting. The style and tone are reminiscent of works by artist Honoré Daumier, as indicated by the name 'H. Daumier' at the top.
