Les réjouissances de Juillet... vues de Ste. Pélagie

Daumier employed the lithography technique to achieve a sketch-like quality, using rapid, expressive lines to convey a sense of movement and energy, characteristic of his satirical and caricatural style.

The work reflects Daumier's engagement with the social and political climate of mid-19th-century France, particularly the July Monarchy period following the Revolution of 1830, and aligns with his republican democratic views.
