'''Wandering Saltimbanques''' (French: ''Les Saltimbanques ambulants'') is a painting by the French artist Honoré Daumier, created between 1847 and 1850. This work is part of Daumier's broader exploration of the lives of performers, particularly those in the lower tiers of the entertainment industry, such as acrobats, clowns, and traveling showmen, known as saltimbanques. The painting depicts a group of itinerant performers, capturing the transient and often precarious nature of their existence.

Daumier, who is best known for his caricatures and satirical works, often portrayed the social realities and human conditions of his time with a sympathetic eye. In "Wandering Saltimbanques," he employs his keen observational skills to render the figures with a sense of dignity and pathos, despite their humble circumstances. The composition is characterized by its loose brushwork and muted color palette, which conveys the weariness and resilience of the performers as they move from place to place in search of an audience.

The painting is significant in the context of 19th-century French art, as it reflects the Romantic interest in the bohemian lifestyle and the plight of the marginalized. Daumier's work prefigures later artistic movements such as Impressionism, with its focus on everyday subjects and moments captured in time. "Wandering Saltimbanques" is also notable for its influence on later artists, including Pablo Picasso, who was inspired by the theme of itinerant performers in his own Rose Period.

"Wandering Saltimbanques" is held in a public collection, and it continues to be studied and admired for its poignant portrayal of the human condition and its contribution to the social narrative of the 19th century. The work is a testament to Daumier's legacy as an artist who combined social commentary with profound empathy, offering a window into the lives of those on the fringes of society.
