"Who do you take me for?" is a notable caricature from the "Les Métamorphoses du Jour" series by the French illustrator Jean-Jacques Grandville, whose real name was Jean Ignace Isidore Gérard. First published in 1829, this series is a pioneering work that blends satirical humor with imaginative illustration, marking a significant contribution to the art of caricature in the 19th century. Grandville's work in "Les Métamorphoses du Jour" consists of 70 lithographs that humorously depict animals dressed as humans, engaging in various activities that mirror and critique societal behaviors and norms of the time.

"Who do you take me for?" stands out within the series for its clever use of anthropomorphism, where animals are endowed with human characteristics, to satirize the pretensions and follies of contemporary society. Grandville's skillful blend of the real and the fantastical in this caricature invites viewers to reflect on human vanity and identity through the lens of animal behavior, a theme that resonates with audiences even today. The series, including "Who do you take me for?", gained widespread popularity and acclaim, influencing not only the genre of caricature but also the development of surrealism and symbolic art in later periods. Grandville's innovative approach in "Les Métamorphoses du Jour" has cemented his legacy as a visionary artist who masterfully critiqued social mores while entertaining his audience with wit and artistic finesse.
