The image is a black and white illustration that appears to be a satirical cartoon. It portrays two primary figures in the foreground: an older man and woman who are dressed in traditional peasant clothing. The man holds a cane while the woman has her hands on her hips, and both are looking towards the background.

In the background, there is a crowd of well-dressed people, likely from the upper class, gathered at an exhibition. The sign in the background reads “Exposition Fromages Volaille” (Exhibition of Cheeses and Poultry).

Below the image, there is a caption in French that reads: “—Dis donc, mon homme, s'ils savaient comment que nous les fabriquons leurs fromages, m'est avis qu'ils ne se presseraient pas tant!” This translates to: "—Say, my man, if they knew how we make their cheese, I bet they wouldn’t be in such a rush!"

The illustration is by the artist Honoré Daumier, known for his social and political satire cartoons. This particular image humorously critiques the ignorance of the upper class about the production processes of the food they consume.

The image is a black and white illustration in a vintage style. It appears to be from a publication as indicated by the word "ACTUALITÉS" at the top, which is French for "news" or "current events." The drawing portrays two primary figures in the foreground, a man and a woman, who are dressed in attire that suggests the image is from an earlier period, likely the 19th or early 20th century. The man is wearing a top hat and a coat with a high collar, and the woman is dressed in a long skirt, apron, and headscarf suggesting a rural or working-class background.

In the background, there is a crowd of individuals, possibly queuing or congregating outside a building with a sign that reads "EXPOSITION ... VOILÀLES" which might refer to some kind of exhibition, and the word "VOLAILLES" which means "poultry" in French. It's possible that this is an exhibition related to poultry. The crowd appears to be made up primarily of people wearing hats, suggesting public or social engagement.

There is a dialogue written in French at the bottom of the image that translates to: "You know, my man, if they knew how we make their cheeses, I think they wouldn't press so much." This suggests a humorous or ironic comment on food production practices, perhaps implying that the process is less appealing than the final product.

The signature "h.D." can be seen at the bottom left of the drawing, indicating the artist's initials, and it is dated '80, presumably indicating the year 1880. There is also text that indicates the print might have been produced by "Imp. Martinet, Paris" which is possibly the name of the printer or publisher.

Overall, the image seems to satirize a social attitude or event, possibly critiquing the public's ignorance about the origins or production of their food, a theme that remains relevant even today.

This is a historical French political cartoon or satirical illustration. The image shows two figures - a tall person in a top hat and a shorter person in what appears to be working-class clothing - observing a crowd gathered outside what seems to be a cheese shop (indicated by "FROMAGES" on the sign). The caption in French reads "Dis donc, mon homme, s'ils savaient comment que nous les fabriquons leurs fromages, m'est avis qu'ils ne se presseraient pas tant!" which roughly translates to "Say, my man, if they knew how we make their cheeses, I think they wouldn't be in such a hurry!"

The artwork appears to be a lithograph or drawing, likely from the 19th century, and is signed with the initials "h.D." It's making a commentary on food quality or production methods of the time, suggesting that consumers might think twice about their purchases if they knew more about how their food was made. The style is characteristic of period social commentary artwork, with detailed line work and shading typical of the era.

This is a French political cartoon or satirical illustration, titled "ACTUALITÉS" (Current Events). The image shows two characters - a tall man wearing a top hat and a woman in traditional dress - observing a crowd of people in top hats waiting in line, presumably at a cheese shop or fromagerie. There's a sign visible at the top of the image that appears to be related to cheese ("FROMAGES").

The caption in French reads: "Dis donc, mon homme, s'ils savaient comment que nous les fabriquons leurs fromages, m'est avis qu'ils ne se presseraient pas tant!" Which roughly translates to: "Say, my man, if they knew how we make their cheeses, I think they wouldn't be in such a hurry!"

The illustration appears to be a social commentary, possibly about food quality or production methods in 19th century France. The style suggests it's from the mid-1800s, and it's executed in a sketch-like manner with black and white lithography or similar printing technique. The artist's initials "h.D." and the number "30" appear in the lower left corner.

The image has a satirical tone, suggesting that the methods of cheese production might be questionable or unappetizing, while the wealthy customers remain blissfully unaware as they eagerly queue to make their purchases.

The image depicts an illustration or sketch of two men standing in front of a doorway with the sign "EXPOSITION DES FROMAGES VOLAILLES" (Exhibition of cheeses, poultry). One man is wearing a top hat and coat, while the other man appears to be a beggar or commoner dressed in rags. The well-dressed man seems to be commenting to the poorer man that while they may make the cheeses, it's a pity they don't get to sample them, based on the French caption at the bottom. The sketch has shading and lines to give it an aged, vintage appearance.

The image is a political cartoon created by the French artist Honoré Daumier, titled "L'Exposition des Volailles" or "The Poultry Exhibition." It was published in 1850. The cartoon depicts a man standing in front of an exhibition hall, with a large crowd of people behind him. The man is wearing a top hat and holding a cane, and he appears to be looking at something inside the hall. The crowd is made up of men and women, all of whom are facing the same direction as the man. They are all dressed in formal attire, suggesting that this is a special event or occasion.

The cartoon is likely commenting on the social and economic conditions of the time. The title "L'Exposition des Volailles" suggests that the exhibition is focused on poultry, which may be a metaphor for the way that the wealthy elite are concerned with trivial matters while the working class struggles to survive. The cartoon may also be commenting on the idea that the wealthy are disconnected from the realities of everyday life, and are more concerned with indulging in luxury and spectacle than with addressing the needs of the common people.

Overall, the cartoon is a commentary on the social and economic inequalities of the time, and the ways in which the wealthy elite are out of touch with the realities of everyday life. It is a powerful critique of the social and economic systems of the time, and it continues to be relevant today.

Here is a description of the image:

This is a black and white cartoon print titled "Actualites". The central focus is a middle-aged man and woman standing on the right side of the image, with a dense crowd of people in the background to their left. Above the crowd, a sign reads "EXPOSITION FROMACES VOLAILLES" (Exhibition of Cheeses Poultry).

The man is wearing a tall hat, a coat over what appears to be a sweater, knee-length pants, and shoes. He holds a walking stick in his hands, which are crossed over the stick in front of him. The woman beside him is wearing a shawl and apron.

In the lower margin, below the artwork, there is text:
"M" Martinet, Paris"
"Dis donc, mon homme, s'ils savaient comment que nous les fabriquons leurs fromages, m'est avis qu'ils ne se presseraient pas tant." This text translates to "Say, man, if they knew how we make their cheeses, I think they wouldn't be rushing so much."
"Lith Destouches, 88, r. Paradis, 95"

The image is likely a political or social commentary, possibly satirizing the cheese and poultry industry. The cartoon style is reminiscent of 19th-century prints.

This is a satirical cartoon from the 19th century. The scene depicts a man and a woman standing outside an exhibition, with a crowd eagerly entering. The sign above the entrance indicates the exhibition is about "EXPOSITION FROMAGES VOLAILLES" (Cheese and Poultry Exhibition). The man, dressed in a suit, and the woman, in a more casual outfit, are looking at the crowd.

The caption reads: "Dis donc, mon homme, s'ils savaient comment que nous les fabriquons leurs fromages, m'est avis qu'ils ne se presseraient pas tant." This translates to "Tell me, my man, if they knew how we make their cheeses, I don't think they would be pushing so much". This humorous commentary suggests the cheesemakers are aware of something unsavory or questionable about their production process, which they are not sharing with the eager cheese consumers. The cartoon is a critique of how the quality of products often does not match their perceived allure, and/or how customers are often unaware of the less savory aspects of production. The artists involved are 'h.D.' and M. Martinet, Paris.

The image is a black-and-white lithograph by Honoré Daumier, a renowned French artist known for his caricatures and social commentary. The artwork appears to be a satirical depiction of a scene in front of an exhibition titled "Exposition de Fromages Volés" (Exhibition of Stolen Cheeses).

In the foreground, there is a man dressed in a military-style uniform with a tall hat, holding a cane, and conversing with a woman who is holding a child. The woman is dressed in simple, working-class attire. The man's expression and posture suggest he is giving advice or making a statement to the woman.

In the background, a crowd of people is gathered, likely waiting to enter the exhibition. The sign above the entrance clearly reads "Exposition de Fromages Volés," indicating the humorous and ironic nature of the event.

At the bottom of the image, there is a caption in French that reads: "Dis donc, mon homme, s'ils savaient comment que nous les fabriquons leurs fromages, m'est avis qu'ils ne se presseraient pas tant." This translates to: "Listen, my man, if they knew how we make their cheeses, I think they wouldn't be in such a hurry." This statement adds to the satirical tone, implying that the cheeses on display might not be as desirable if people knew their true origin.

The artwork is signed "H.D." in the lower left corner, indicating it is by Honoré Daumier. The lithograph was published by Martinet in Paris and printed by Becquet, as noted in the lower margins.
