Impressions de vendages

Honoré Daumier

National Gallery of Art

This is a drawing of a grape-stomping scene. The image shows individuals around wooden containers for crushing grapes. One figure is seated on a larger barrel with exaggerated physical features, while another figure is nearby possibly repairing footwear. Grape juice is splattered on the ground and there is overgrown landscape in the background. Text at the bottom adds comedic dialog to the scene.
