Visitekaartje van drukkerij Nys en Mommen 1869 - 1870

This etching, created by Felicien Rops between 1869-1870, depicts a humorous scene of cherubs engaging in various activities related to printing. A cherub uses a printing press, another reads a printed page while a third holds a banner proclaiming "Taille Douce." Rops's signature use of satire is evident in this work, which satirizes the printing industry through the use of mischievous cherubs. "Visitekaartje van drukkerij Nys en Mommen," a business card for the printing press, is housed at the Rijksmuseum.
