"Passers By" (1858-1860) is a series of lithographs created by the French artist Honoré Daumier, renowned for his social commentary and satirical works. Daumier, who lived from 1808 to 1879, was a prolific printmaker, painter, and sculptor, whose works often reflected the political climate and social conditions of 19th-century France. The "Passers By" series is notable for its depiction of the diverse characters that populated the streets of Paris during the period, capturing the essence of everyday life with both humor and pathos.

In these lithographs, Daumier presents a cross-section of French society, from the bourgeoisie to the working class, highlighting the social dynamics and interactions of the time. His keen observation of human behavior and the conditions of urban life is evident in the detailed expressions and postures of the figures he portrays. Each character in the series is rendered with individuality, yet they are also emblematic of broader societal roles and classes.

Daumier's work is characterized by his mastery of lithography, a printing technique that allowed for the mass production of images and their dissemination to a wide audience. This accessibility was significant in a time of rising literacy rates and expanding public engagement with political and social issues. The "Passers By" series, like much of Daumier's oeuvre, was likely published in periodicals or as individual prints, contributing to the public discourse of the day.

The "Passers By" series is an important part of Daumier's legacy as an artist who deftly combined artistry with commentary. His work remains influential for its contribution to the development of Realism in art and for its enduring insights into human nature and society. The series is held in various art collections and continues to be the subject of scholarly study and public interest.
