Madame Prudhomme...

Honoré Daumier, 1854

Three exaggerated figures in old-fashioned bathing suits walk on a beach. The figures have comically exaggerated body shapes and features. The drawing uses strong lines to highlight their proportions and expressions. In the background, two smaller figures are vaguely seen in the beach or water. The scene suggests a beach setting with a light-hearted and satirical mood.
