"Rue Transnonain" is a lithograph created by the French artist Honoré Daumier, first published on April 15, 1834. The work is a powerful social commentary on an event that occurred on April 14, 1834, in the Rue Transnonain, a street in Paris. Following an insurrection during the reign of King Louis-Philippe, government forces stormed a working-class neighborhood to suppress the uprising. In the process, they indiscriminately massacred the inhabitants of a building in the Rue Transnonain, including women and children.

Daumier's lithograph is a stark and poignant representation of the aftermath of this tragedy. It depicts the lifeless body of a man lying atop a bed, his head crushed, with a child's corpse beneath him and a woman's arm reaching out in the background, suggesting further casualties out of view. The domestic setting, with its intimate and personal details, contrasts sharply with the brutal scene, highlighting the senseless violence inflicted upon ordinary citizens.

The work is notable for its political significance and its role in the history of printmaking. Daumier, who was known for his social and political caricatures, used the medium of lithography to reach a broad audience and to make a forceful statement against the government's oppressive actions. "Rue Transnonain" is considered one of his most compelling and emotionally charged works, and it remains an important historical document of the social injustices of the time.

As a piece of art, "Rue Transnonain" exemplifies Daumier's mastery of lithography, his skillful use of light and shadow, and his ability to convey deep emotion through his work. The lithograph has been widely studied and discussed in the context of art history, political activism, and media studies, and it continues to resonate as a poignant reminder of the human cost of political violence.
