"One man leaving and the other returning to hospital" is a notable caricature from the "Moeurs Parisiennes" series, engraved by Langlume around 1825. The artwork was created by Edme Jean Pigal, a French artist renowned for his satirical and often humorous depictions of Parisian life during the early 19th century. Pigal's work is characterized by its keen observation of social behaviors and its ability to capture the essence of contemporary urban experiences.

The caricature in question portrays a vivid scene of two men at a hospital, one leaving and the other returning. This juxtaposition serves as a commentary on the cyclical nature of health and illness, as well as the perpetual human condition of suffering and recovery. The engraving technique employed by Langlume enhances the intricate details and expressive qualities of Pigal's original drawing, bringing to life the characters' emotions and the bustling atmosphere of the hospital setting.

Pigal's "Moeurs Parisiennes" series, which translates to "Parisian Customs," offers a window into the daily lives and societal norms of Parisians during the Restoration period. The series is celebrated for its incisive wit and the artist's ability to encapsulate the quirks and idiosyncrasies of his contemporaries. Through his caricatures, Pigal not only entertained his audience but also provided a critical lens through which to view the social dynamics and public institutions of his time.

The collaboration between Pigal and Langlume is a testament to the synergy between artist and engraver, resulting in works that are both visually compelling and rich in narrative content. "One man leaving and the other returning to hospital" remains a significant piece within the "Moeurs Parisiennes" series, reflecting the enduring appeal of Pigal's satirical artistry and his contribution to the cultural tapestry of 19th-century Paris.
