An authentic 19th-century lithograph by the legendary French caricaturist and "Father of Modern Satire," Honoré Daumier (1808–1879). This piece originates from the renowned series "Tout ce qu’on voudra" (Whatever You Want) and was published in the satirical Parisian journal Le Charivari circa 1848-1851.

The "ghosting" of the French typography from the reverse side is visible, which is a hallmark of authenticity for Le Charivari editions. The frame shows minor vintage wear/scuffs but remains sturdy and ready to hang. less
