This 1826 broadside, created by an anonymous artist, depicts a satirical scene of life in Amsterdam. The artwork is a _Kermisprent_, a type of print that was popular in the Netherlands during the 17th and 18th centuries. The print likely depicts a scene from the Amsterdam fair, known as the _Kermis_, showing a humorous and often critical view of the city's social life. The artwork was likely published to be sold at the fair as a souvenir, serving as a snapshot of the lively city culture.
