"Enfonce Lafayette! ... Attrappe, Mon Vieux!" is a notable lithograph created by the French artist Honoré Daumier, who is widely recognized for his incisive social and political commentary through his art. Daumier, born in 1808 and active until his death in 1879, was a prolific caricaturist, painter, and sculptor, whose works often critiqued the political landscape and social issues of 19th-century France.

This particular lithograph, produced in 1831, is emblematic of Daumier's sharp wit and his ability to capture the essence of contemporary political sentiments. The title, which roughly translates to "Go for it, Lafayette! ... Catch it, old man!", references General Lafayette, a key figure in both the American and French revolutions, who was a prominent political figure during the July Monarchy in France. The work is part of Daumier's broader oeuvre that frequently targeted political figures and events with a blend of humor and acerbic criticism.

In "Enfonce Lafayette! ... Attrappe, Mon Vieux!", Daumier employs his characteristic style of exaggerated features and dynamic composition to convey a sense of urgency and movement. The lithograph likely comments on the political maneuverings and the tumultuous nature of French politics during the early 1830s, a period marked by the transition from the Bourbon Restoration to the July Monarchy under King Louis-Philippe.

Daumier's lithographs were often published in satirical journals such as "La Caricature" and "Le Charivari," where they reached a broad audience and influenced public opinion. His work not only provided entertainment but also served as a powerful tool for political critique and social commentary. "Enfonce Lafayette! ... Attrappe, Mon Vieux!" stands as a testament to Daumier's skill in using art to engage with and reflect upon the political dynamics of his time.
