"Le Fantôme" is a lithograph by the French artist Honoré Daumier (1808–1879), a prolific printmaker, caricaturist, painter, and sculptor whose work offered commentary on the social and political life of 19th-century France. Created in 1836, "Le Fantôme" is part of Daumier's series "Les Phénomènes," which satirizes the public's fascination with paranormal phenomena and pseudo-scientific beliefs that were prevalent during the period.

The lithograph depicts a spectral figure, the "phantom," emerging from a dark background, its form shrouded in a ghostly shawl or cloak. The image plays on the era's obsession with spiritualism and the supernatural, as well as the theatricality of such apparitions. Daumier's work often targeted the gullibility of the public and the charlatans who exploited it, and "Le Fantôme" is no exception. It reflects the artist's sharp wit and his ability to critique societal trends through visual art.

Daumier's lithographs were primarily published in newspapers and periodicals like "La Caricature" and "Le Charivari," where they reached a wide audience. His work was influential in the development of satirical lithography and contributed to the rich tradition of political and social caricature in European art. "Le Fantôme," with its combination of humor and social commentary, is a quintessential example of Daumier's artistic legacy and his commitment to using art as a means of reflecting on and challenging the status quo.
