"Le Czar à Sébastopol" is a lithograph created by the French artist Honoré Daumier, a prolific printmaker, caricaturist, painter, and sculptor known for his social and political commentary. The work is part of Daumier's extensive oeuvre that often critiqued the political landscape and social mores of 19th-century France through satire. This particular lithograph, whose title translates to "The Tsar at Sevastopol," is believed to have been produced around the time of the Crimean War (1853–1856), which pitted the Russian Empire against an alliance of the Ottoman Empire, France, Britain, and Sardinia.

In "Le Czar à Sébastopol," Daumier likely presents a satirical depiction of Tsar Nicholas I of Russia, who was the reigning monarch during the early years of the Crimean War. The city of Sevastopol was a focal point of the conflict, enduring a prolonged siege that resulted in significant losses for the Russian military. Daumier's work often targeted figures of authority, and this lithograph would have been no exception, using humor and exaggeration to critique the Tsar's role in the war and its consequences.

As with many of Daumier's lithographs, "Le Czar à Sébastopol" would have been distributed as part of a publication, possibly in a periodical like "La Caricature" or "Le Charivari," which regularly featured his work. These prints served as a form of mass media, conveying news and opinion to a broad audience during a time when literacy was on the rise and the public's interest in current events was growing.

The lithograph is representative of Daumier's mature style, characterized by expressive line work and a keen eye for the absurdities of human behavior. His ability to distill complex political situations into accessible and engaging imagery made his work both popular and influential during his lifetime. Today, Daumier's prints, including "Le Czar à Sébastopol," are held in high regard for their artistic merit and historical significance, offering insight into the turbulent political climate of 19th-century Europe.
