Qu'est-ce que vous faites la...

Honoré Daumier

National Gallery of Art

This is a drawing of a man climbing over a wall interacting with another man. The drawing shows one man climbing over a stone wall while another stands on the ground below holding what appears to be a rifle. The scene is outdoors, with plants and a small tree to the right side. There is a sign on the wall next to the climber with French text warning against entry. The style of the drawing is reminiscent of 19th-century satirical illustrations, with detailed line work and cross-hatching for depth and texture. The setting suggests a rural or garden-like environment.
