Musée Carnavalet
The Musée Carnavalet – Histoire de Paris takes you right to the centre of Parisian social life in the 19th century through the works of Honoré Daumier (1808-1879).
Daumier – the French engraver, caricaturist, painter and sculptor – is a mythical figure in the Parisian imagination.
Through his art tinged with humour and tenderness, he casts a picturesque, amusing, frightening and tragic light on these "little people" in the streets of the capital.
Join him as you delve into the world of the rag-and-bone men, seasonal migrant workers lodging in let rooms, workers in the inner suburbs, ruffians from thugland and their Casque d’Or affair, grisettes, taverns at the barriers, cabaret, accordion dances on the rue de Lappe etc.
