"Le Départ pour le Bal" (The Departure for the Ball) is a work by the French artist Honoré Daumier (1808–1879), a prolific painter, sculptor, and printmaker best known for his caricatures of political figures and satires on the social mores of his time. While Daumier is primarily celebrated for his lithographs and his contributions to the press, his paintings also offer a critical and humorous lens on 19th-century French society.

"Le Départ pour le Bal" is believed to depict the anticipation and excitement surrounding the preparation for a ball, a common social event during the period. The work is characteristic of Daumier's style, which often includes expressive figures and a focus on the human condition. His use of color and adept handling of light and shadow contribute to the narrative quality of the painting, capturing a moment that is both personal and relatable.

Although Daumier's paintings were not as widely recognized during his lifetime as his prints, they have since gained appreciation for their contribution to the development of modern art. His works are considered precursors to impressionism and expressionism, with artists such as Edgar Degas and Vincent van Gogh citing him as an influence.

"Le Départ pour le Bal" is part of Daumier's oeuvre that reflects his interest in the lives of ordinary people, their daily struggles, and their moments of leisure. The painting is a testament to Daumier's skill in portraying the human experience with both empathy and a critical eye, making it a valuable piece for understanding the social context and artistic movements of 19th-century France.

As with many of Daumier's works, the exact date of creation, current location, and history of "Le Départ pour le Bal" may not be well-documented, which is not uncommon for artworks of this period. However, the painting remains an important example of Daumier's artistic legacy and his commitment to social commentary through art.
