(The Emigrants)
Sculptor: Daumier, Honoré Victorin
Bronze plaque. The group of figures in low relief are represented as moving towards the left. The figures in the centre are in higher relief, especially the figure of a man holding a child's hand in his left hand and carrying another child in his right arm. On the right is another group led by a man carrying the front end of a stretcher. The figures are all naked and the style avoids clear outlines.
