Title (alt.):
10 O'CLOCK IN THE MORNING. Mr. Coqueles having met Miss Palissandre in the Botanical gardens when he had the good fortunate to offer a fairy rose the first of May 1804, had obtained a first date, and having been satisfied buying a new pair of gloves at 29 cents, he casts a glance in the mirror before going out to try his fortune.
Description:
A bachelor is putting on his gloves as he looks at himself in a mirror. Daumier is showing us the day and activities of a bachelor, in this case of Monsieur Coquelet. It starts with his waking up at seven in the morning and ends at 9 in the evening when he goes to bed. The series reads like a story and is therefore ideal for publication as an album.
