Ciel!...je trouve ma femme déménagée!

Honoré Daumier

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a man standing in front of a partially open doorway. He is leaning slightly forward with one hand outstretched. The man has a surprised expression with his mouth open and eyes wide. He is wearing a top hat, long cloak, striped pants, and pointed shoes. In the background, there is a door partly open, revealing a barren room with a fallen chair. The surface has thin vertical lines suggesting wooden paneling or wallpaper.
