Note du spécialiste

“Daumier’s particular genius is evident in the stunning and disciplined clarity of his images. The artist never became mired in detail or narratives that required explanation, but instead concentrated on defining character through incisive description. Thus, true identities are revealed” (C. Ives, Daumier Drawings, exh. cat., The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, 1992, pg. 175).
