Daumier - Les Crepes

LES CREPES. Allons bon, v'la que j'm'en offre une a moi meme !...' Translation: 'THE PANCAKES. What the heck ... I think I'll have this one myself.' Original lithograph by Honore Daumier published in Paris in 1845. From a series titled 'Les Beaux Jours de la vie' which was published in the French magazine 'Le Charivari'. Honore Daumier (1808-1879), was a French printmaker, caricaturist, painter, and sculptor, whose many works offer commentary on social and political life in France in the 19th century. A prolific and reknown draftsman who produced over 4000 lithographs, he was perhaps best known for his caricatures of political figures and satires on the behavior of his countrymen. Faint folds as issued, text on the reverse as issued. A couple of small spots.
