Honoré Daumier (1808-1879) was a French printmaker, caricaturist, painter, and sculptor, whose many works offer commentary on social and political life in France in the 19th century. Daumier produced over 500 paintings, 4000 lithographs, 1000 wood engravings, 1000 drawings and 100 sculptures. A prolific draftsman, he was perhaps best known for his caricatures of political figures and satires on the behavior of his countrymen. During the aftermath of the French Revolution, Honore Daumier,"the Michelangelo of caricature", rose to prominence as the caricaturist of 19th century French politics and society. His determined focus on the foibles of 19th century France made him an artist that developed a life-long sympathy for the poor.A man is showing M. Mayeux an orangutan – and the orangutan looks like M. Mayeux! Les Orang-Ouans (The orang-outangs) is a series of 4 lithographs, of which 3 appeared in the Charivari in 1836. In 1836 for the first time a live orang-outang by the name of Jack was exhibited in Paris. This inspired Daumier to depict animals disguised as humans in their caricatures.
