About the work:
"A wonderful collection of mostly jovial and colorful characters depicting Parisian customs of social interactions in Pigal’s unassuming style of caricature, which is closer to the English satirical art of Gillray, Cruikshank and Rowlandson than to the political and social satires of his French contemporaries, such as Daumier and Gavarni".(DavidBrass).
Edmé-Jean Pigal [1798-1873]. A major French nineteenth century artist and caricaturist. Professor of art at the Lycee in Sens.
