"Crispin and Scapin" is an oil painting by the French artist Honoré Daumier, created between 1858 and 1860. The work is a testament to Daumier's skill in capturing character and narrative in his paintings, which is more widely known for his prolific output as a caricaturist and lithographer. The painting depicts two characters from Molière's comedy "Les Fourberies de Scapin" (The Tricks of Scapin), showcasing Daumier's interest in the theatrical world and his ability to translate the dynamism of performance onto canvas.

In the painting, Daumier captures a moment of high drama and comedy, as the wily servant Scapin, known for his cunning and deceit, interacts with his fellow servant Crispin. The characters are set against a dark background, which serves to highlight their expressive gestures and the intricate details of their period costumes. Daumier's brushwork is vigorous and his use of color is restrained yet effective, contributing to the overall sense of movement and immediacy in the scene.

"Crispin and Scapin" is considered an important work in Daumier's oeuvre, as it reflects his keen observation of human behavior and social commentary, which he more commonly expressed through his graphic works. The painting is a fine example of Daumier's ability to blend satire with a deep humanity, a characteristic that has earned him a place among the most respected French Realist artists of the 19th century.

The painting is part of the collection of the Musée d'Orsay in Paris, where it continues to be studied and appreciated for its artistic and historical significance. It stands as a significant contribution to the genre of genre painting, offering insight into the social mores and entertainments of Daumier's time.
