Les 100 Robert Macaire #[nn]

This volume inaugurates the 'Les Maîtres du dessin satirique' series from Horay, collecting 100 satirical lithographs featuring the iconic rogue Robert Macaire, originally created by Honoré Daumier with text by Philipon. The character, a symbol of 19th-century French bourgeois greed and corruption, is presented here in a curated selection that highlights Daumier's sharp social commentary and masterful caricature. It serves as both an artistic tribute and a historical document of the July Monarchy era's satirical press.
