"Actualités Parisiennes, Attendant la comète" (Parisian News, Waiting for the Comet) is a lithograph by the renowned French printmaker and caricaturist Honoré Daumier (1808–1879). Created during the 19th century, this work is part of Daumier's extensive oeuvre, which often satirized the social and political life of Paris. The lithograph depicts Parisians anticipating the arrival of a comet, a celestial event that historically has been met with both wonder and dread.

Daumier was known for his keen observation of contemporary society and his ability to capture the essence of Parisian life with humor and critical insight. In "Actualités Parisiennes, Attendant la comète," he may have been commenting on the public's fascination with astronomical events and the superstitions and fears that often accompanied them. The work likely reflects the mixture of excitement and anxiety that permeated the city as people awaited the comet's appearance.

As a leading figure in the field of caricature, Daumier's contributions to art extend beyond his technical skill; his works provide a window into the societal attitudes and cultural climate of 19th-century France. "Actualités Parisiennes, Attendant la comète" exemplifies Daumier's talent for combining social commentary with artistic expression, making it a valuable piece for both art historians and those interested in the period's social history.

Daumier's lithographs were typically published in newspapers and periodicals, reaching a wide audience and influencing public opinion. His work was often censored or deemed controversial due to its critical portrayal of authority figures and the bourgeoisie. Despite this, or perhaps because of it, Daumier's legacy as a master of political and social satire endures, and his prints remain significant for their historical context and artistic merit.

This introduction provides a general overview of the work and its creator, setting the stage for a more detailed exploration of its historical background, thematic content, and artistic significance within Daumier's body of work and the broader context of 19th-century French art.
