Famous for satirizing politicians—a talent that got him briefly jailed—Daumier was forced to find milder targets after Emperor Napoleon III’s caricature crackdown in 1852–66. “Connoisseurs” became favorite topics of his ridicule. Here, after bemoaning the number of classical nudes on exhibit, the woman at left adds, “as if there were any women built like that!”
