Daumier's Techniques: Caricature as a Weapon of Resistance

In "Bust of Francois-Pierre-Guillaume Guizot," Daumier employs his signature caricaturing style to exaggerate the subject's physical features, creating a grotesque and unforgettable image. His bold lines and exaggerated proportions mercilessly expose Guizot's pomposity and inflated sense of self-worth.

Beyond the Image: Symbolism and Meaning

The bust format itself adds to the satire, reducing Guizot to a mere object of ridicule. The subject's vacant expression and oversized head convey a profound lack of intelligence and compassion.
