"Le Faubourg Saint-Germain" is a lithograph by the French artist Henri Bonaventure Monnier (1799–1877), who was renowned for his work as a caricaturist, illustrator, and playwright. The lithograph is part of a series that Monnier produced, which satirizes the manners and mores of Parisian society during the July Monarchy (1830–1848), a period marked by the reign of King Louis-Philippe I and characterized by a burgeoning bourgeoisie and a vibrant, if often critical, artistic community.

In "Le Faubourg Saint-Germain," Monnier captures the essence of one of Paris's most aristocratic neighborhoods. The Faubourg Saint-Germain was known as a bastion of the old nobility and the traditional upper class, who were often at odds with the rising bourgeois class and their different set of values and aspirations. Through his keen observation and sharp wit, Monnier's work provides a window into the social dynamics and class tensions of his time.

The lithograph likely features a scene of daily life or a social gathering, showcasing the fashion, demeanor, and interactions of the residents of the Faubourg Saint-Germain. Monnier's attention to detail and his ability to convey character through facial expressions and body language contribute to the enduring appeal of his work. His illustrations serve not only as artistic endeavors but also as valuable historical documents that offer insight into the cultural and social history of 19th-century France.

Henri Monnier's contributions to French art and literature were significant, and his works, including "Le Faubourg Saint-Germain," continue to be studied and appreciated for their humor, artistry, and commentary on the society of his time.
