DELIGHTED TO FIND HIMSELF ON SHOW, THE ORIGINAL TAKES HIS WIFE TO THE EXHIBITION, AND PLACES HER BEFORE HIS IMAGE TO ENJOY THE OPINION OF THE CROWD. - LOOK, SOME SAY, IT'S THE CHINESE COMMISSIONER LIN! - NO, OTHERS SAY, DON'T YOU SEE, IT'S NATURAL HISTORY! - IT'S... RESUMES ONE GENTLEMAN IN POSSESSION OF THE CATALOGUE, IT'S THE PORTRAIT OF MR. D..... INSURANCE BROKER: - OH WELL, WITH A BONCE LIKE THAT HE DOESN'T NEED TO INSURE HIMSELF, HE'LL NOT
Honoré Daumier
Charmé de se voir exposé, l'original ici présent conduit son épouse au salon, et la place devant son image, pour jouir du jugement de la foule. - Tiens disent les uns, c'est le Commissaire chinois Lin! - Non, disent les autres, vous ne voyez pas que c'est de l'histoire naturelle! - C'est, reprend un Monsieur possesseur du livret, c'est le portrait de Mr. D...., courtier d'assurances. - Ah ben avec une boule comme ça, il n'a pas besoin de s'assurer, on ne l'enlevera pas. (Madame sa femme sort extrêmement flattée).
