This etching, created in 1784 by the German artist Daniel Nikolaus Chodowiecki, depicts a satirical scene titled "Drie heren in de dierentuin opzoek naar een bruid" which translates to "Three gentlemen in the zoo looking for a bride." The image features three men walking through a zoo, likely in search of a suitable wife. This small-scale etching, measuring only 110 mm in height and 65 mm in width, was likely intended for private viewing and reflects the artist's interest in capturing scenes of daily life with a humorous touch.
