This is a historical French satirical illustration titled "EN CHINE" (In China) from what appears to be the 1850s. The artwork shows three figures in a caricatured style. The figure in the middle is holding up what looks like a queue (traditional Chinese hairstyle), while two other figures are shown bowing or bent over. There are bottles visible on a table in the background. The French text at the bottom roughly translates to "Come on, come on friends... for two small bottles... if you're not more steady on your legs... I won't pay you to drink anymore!" The drawing style is characteristic of 19th-century political cartoons or social commentary illustrations, rendered in black and white. The image appears to be making a commentary about drinking and social behavior, though it does so through problematic racial stereotyping that was unfortunately common in that era.

The image is a political cartoon by French artist Honoré Daumier, titled "En Chine" (In China), created in 1859. It depicts a scene of a Chinese man being manipulated by two European men, symbolizing the exploitation and oppression of China by Western powers during the 19th century. In the foreground, the Chinese man is shown kneeling on the ground, with his hands tied behind his back. He appears to be helpless and submissive. On the left side of the image, a European man is holding a whip, which he is using to threaten the Chinese man. The European man is dressed in a Western-style suit and hat, emphasizing his power and dominance over the Chinese man. On the right side of the image, another European man is shown pulling the Chinese man's hair, further emphasizing the Chinese man's subjugation. This European man is also dressed in Western attire, reinforcing the theme of Western exploitation and oppression. In the background, there are several objects that add to the overall message of the cartoon. A bottle of wine and a glass are visible on a table, suggesting that the European men are indulging in luxury and pleasure while exploiting the Chinese man. A fan is also visible in the background, which may represent the Chinese man's cultural heritage and the ways in which it is being erased or exploited by Western powers. Overall, the image is a powerful commentary on the unequal relationships between Western powers and non-Western societies during the 19th century. It highlights the ways in which Western powers used their economic, military, and cultural power to exploit and oppress non-Western societies, and how these relationships were often characterized by violence, coercion, and manipulation.
