2.000 fr...sans écurie...ça ne me convient pas!

Honoré Daumier

National Gallery of Art

This is a drawing of two individuals engaged in an interaction, one inside a doorway and the other standing outside. The scene is depicted in black and white. To the left, there is an older individual in profile, wearing a bonnet and holding a pair of glasses in one hand while the other rests on a door frame. They have a cautious expression. To the right, an individual with a long face and prominent nose is depicted in exaggerated proportions. They are dressed in a structured coat, a patterned vest, and a high-collared shirt, with a top hat tilted back on their head and carrying a book. French text can be seen below the image.
