Caricature of Jules Didier (“Butterfly Man”)

A chalk caricature in profile shows a bearded man with a very long, hooked nose and a dark, swept-back hairstyle. A butterfly-like wing sprouts from his collar, and a placard reads L'Homme Papillon and Prix des places beside a tiny sketched figure below. Signed C. Monet at lower right, the drawing uses black and white chalk on tinted paper.
