Published by Bauger, rue du Croissant 16 (lower left). Printed by d'Aubert & Cie at Aubert, Place de la Bourse, Paris Text written by Alphonse Jean LAURENT-JAN (1808-1877) who was a journalist, writer and associate at the Charivari, where he wrote captions for Daumier's lithographs. He was also a friend of Balzac. Known chiefly as a political and social satirist, Honoré DAUMIER used the printmaking process of lithography, still relatively new at the time, to contribute cartoons and caricatures to French news weeklies.
