Description:
Daumier was only 22 years old at the time of this print's publication. The print depicts a frequented area on the Tuileries, where it was possible to read journals and newspapers which were available at a news stand. Two gay working girls (grisettes) are moving towards the spectator, throwing a glance of resentment at the men sitting at a kiosk reading newspapers and not being interested in them at all.
