Honoré Daumier

Artist, French, 1808 - 1879

The image shows a sketched illustration of a man in a kitchen setting. The man is standing to the right, wearing a beret, a beard, and a chef's uniform with an apron. He is holding a rope connected to an animal that is partially visible to the left. In the background, there are kitchen utensils hanging on the wall, and a carving board is positioned on a surface. The room appears to be a rustic kitchen or butchery with stone walls.
