"Saltimbanque À La Parade" is a lithograph created by the French artist Honoré Daumier (1808–1879), a prolific caricaturist, painter, and sculptor known for his social and political commentary. The work is part of Daumier's extensive oeuvre that often depicted scenes of Parisian life, including the world of entertainment and the plight of the less fortunate in society.

The term "saltimbanque" refers to a street performer or acrobat, often associated with the traditional circus or traveling shows of the 19th century. In "Saltimbanque À La Parade," Daumier captures the essence of these performers, who were a common sight in the public squares and marketplaces of Paris. The lithograph portrays a saltimbanque in the midst of a performance or parade, likely trying to gather a crowd for a show.

Daumier's work is characterized by his keen observation of the human condition and his ability to convey the character and emotions of his subjects with a few deft strokes. His representations of saltimbanques and other performers are often imbued with a sense of irony and social critique, reflecting the precarious existence of such entertainers and their place on the fringes of society.

As a leading figure in the development of modern caricature, Daumier's lithographs were widely circulated in periodicals of the time, such as "La Caricature" and "Le Charivari," making his work accessible to a broad audience. "Saltimbanque À La Parade" is an example of Daumier's commitment to documenting the social realities of his era through the medium of printmaking.

The lithograph is part of Daumier's broader body of work that explores the themes of performance and spectacle, which includes other notable pieces such as "Les Comédiens de Société" and "Les Saltimbanques." "Saltimbanque À La Parade" not only serves as a historical record of 19th-century Parisian street life but also stands as a testament to Daumier's artistic legacy and his influence on later generations of artists.
