(French, 1808–1879)
De la neige, de la vraie neige... (Snow, real snow...), 1853
Lithograph
Gift of Eugene L. Garbaty, 1954.146
Daumier captures the magic not just of a midnight snow shower, but of the lithographic medium itself.
— De la neige, de la vraie neige ... je n'en avais pas vu à Paris depuis 1822 ... ça me rajeunit de trente ans !
—Snow, real snow... I haven't seen snow in Paris since 1822... it makes me feel thirty years younger!
