One weight slider — and your canvas is printed on the rough cream paper of Le Charivari.<h2 id="about-the-artist">About the Artist</h2><ul><li>Honoré Daumier (1808–1879) — French printmaker, caricaturist, painter, and sculptor; the supreme visual chronicler of 19th-century Parisian social life.</li><li>Master of lithography and expressive wash drawing; his chalky, velvety blacks and energetic hatching defined political satire for a generation.</li><li>Famous for his relentless campaigns against King Louis Philippe (depicted as the giant Gargantua), the legal profession, and the pompous bourgeoisie.</li><li>Equally celebrated for his deeply empathetic paintings and prints of the working class: laundresses, emigrants, street singers, and vagabonds.</li><li>Praised by Baudelaire, Delacroix, and Balzac; a foundational figure of Realism and modern caricature.</li></ul><h2 id="the-manner">The Manner</h2><ul><li>Velvety chiaroscuro: deep, rich lithographic blacks contrasting with raw cream paper or muted earthy painterly tones.</li><li>Expressive, energetic linework: gestural, almost sketchy crayon marks that capture movement and psychological weight rather than polished anatomy.</li><li>Grotesque but empathetic caricature: exaggerated slumped shoulders, theatrical noses, and heavy jowls for the corrupt; quiet dignity and exhaustion for the poor.</li><li>Theatrical staging: dramatic raking light, heavy shadows, figures clustered in tight, dynamic groupings.</li><li>Muted earthy palette (in paintings): ochres, umbers, slate grays, deep brick reds; or stark monochrome lithograph tones.</li><li>Bustling 19th-century Paris: cobblestones, heavy wool coats, top hats, gas lamps, and crowded omnibus interiors.</li></ul><h2 id="tested-generation-settings">Tested Generation Settings</h2>ParameterValueBase modelKrea2 TurboSteps8Sampler / SchedulerEuler a / Bong TangentCFG1Resolution1024×1536 (editorial vertical) / 1024×1024 (scene)LoRA weight0.85–1.0 (0.7 for subtle lithograph tint)Positive-only disciplineunwanted elements replaced by descriptive anchors: <code>heavy wool garments, fully clothed adult figures, expressive chalky linework, rough cream paper texture</code><h2 id="trigger-words">Trigger Words</h2><code>Honoré Daumier style</code>, <code>19th-century French lithograph</code>, <code>social satire caricature</code>, <code>expressive chalky linework</code>, <code>velvety chiaroscuro</code>, <code>Le Charivari aesthetic</code> Boosters: <code>rough cream paper texture, bone-black ink, muted earthy palette, theatrical raking light, Parisian street realism</code><h2 id="versions">Versions</h2><ul><li>V1 (current) — initial release: 60 prompts covering the full Daumier spectrum (courtrooms, street labor, transit, political satire, theater, medical quacks), bundled as wildcard.</li></ul><h2 id="rights-and-ethics">Rights &amp; Ethics</h2><ul><li>Honoré Daumier died in 1879 — his entire oeuvre is public domain worldwide.</li><li>All subjects are historical 19th-century archetypes (judges, lawyers, workers, bourgeoisie); no likenesses of living persons.</li><li>Satire targets social systems and historical classes, fully clothed in period-accurate heavy garments; SFW by design.</li><li>This LoRA is a style study and homage to the master of Realist caricature.</li></ul>
