About this picture
Three Gossips is a public-domain drawing by Honoré-Victorin Daumier, dated 1865/1867. Black crayon and charcoal, on ivory laid paper. The file comes from Art Institute of Chicago.
“Three Gossips” (1865/1867) is the kind of sheet Daumier made by the thousand: a blunt, observing drawing of ordinary people, the law, or the Paris street. Most are lithographs. A few are paintings.
About the artist
Honoré Daumier (1808–1879) was a French printmaker and painter. He made thousands of lithographs for the paper Le Charivari, satirizing lawyers, politicians, and the Paris street, and painted quieter pictures of travelers and people at work.
