"Ketellapper" is an etching by Dutch artist Jan Matham dating back to 1628-1648. The artwork depicts a man, likely a tinker or a peddler, carrying a collection of pots and other metalware. His posture is somewhat hunched and his face is slightly exaggerated, hinting at a caricature. The detailed etching style and the inscription above the figure add a satirical element, possibly commenting on the social class or the profession of the depicted man.
