La Fortune by Honoré Daumier is a bronze cast with a medal patina, bearing the monogram "hD" on the base and the inscription "Siot Fondeur Paris." Standing 29 cm tall, this sculpture captures Daumier's full expressive power, depicting the allegorical figure of Fortune in his characteristic style. The medal patina gives the piece richness and depth, enhancing its details while maintaining a balance between humor and gravity. Signed by the Siot foundry, this work reflects Daumier's artistic intensity and unique satire, evoking both his social critique and his sharp insight into the values of his time.
