Le regulateur

Honoré Daumier

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a drawing of a man from the waist up, in profile facing right. He wears a tall top hat, has wrinkles on his face, short light-colored hair, wearing a long jacket, waistcoat, high-collared shirt with a cravat, holding a pocket watch in one hand, adjusting its hands, and holding an umbrella in the other. The background depicts a textured gradient suggesting a wall. Text in the upper part reads "MONOMANES." and "N°5," with additional French text at the bottom, partially obscured.
