Mr. Mayeux 1827 - 1894

"Mr. Mayeux" is a satirical print by M. Hemeleers-van Houter, created between 1827 and 1894. It depicts a series of humorous scenes featuring a man named Mr. Mayeux, highlighting his perceived flaws and eccentricities. The artwork, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, uses vibrant colors and exaggerated figures to create a light-hearted and engaging commentary on social customs and human nature, typical of caricature art. The print's lively nature and attention to detail make it a fascinating example of 19th-century Dutch printmaking.
