The scene includes a figure holding a goblet, suggesting a celebration. De Hooghe's use of intricate detail in the figures' attire and the garden setting creates a sense of realism and captures the spirit of 17th-century Dutch society. The etching is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, where it can be admired as a testament to the artist's skill in capturing everyday moments.
