    Plate 6 from the 'Le public du Salon' ('The Salon public') series, published in 'Le Charivari' 10 May 1852.

    Look, Papa, there's you!
    This bust is very well lit, it makes a good impression… I am only sorry the artist did not think of showing me in my hat, which would greatly have increased the likeness!

    Tiens, papa, te v’là!
    Ce buste est très bien éclairé, il fait très bon effet… je regrette seulement que l’artiste n’ait pas songé à me mettre mon chapeau sur la tête, cela aurait ajouté bien plus à la ressemblance!
