Whilst the work of Honore Daumier has long been known and its greatness recognized in this country, there have been surprisingly few books published on it, and no comprehensive selection of his lithographs. Extreme care has been taken to preserve the freshness and spontanaeity of the artist's work and it is hoped, therefore, that this selection (of necessity a difficult task in view of the amount of the material available and the importance of the subject) will be of commensurate interest to artists, students, libraries, and the public in general. Includes a list of the translated captions of the plates.
