This print, created by Lutkie & Cranenburg between 1848 and 1881, showcases four different types of horse-drawn carriages. The artwork, titled "Wie zou 't niet gaarne mogen lijden, / Om tot vermaak eens uit te rijden? / Het rijden is een goede zaak, / 't verschaft ons dikwijls veel vermaak" is an example of the 19th-century fascination with leisure activities like carriage riding. The print, currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, depicts a variety of carriages, from a single-horse phaeton to a larger, more elaborate coach, emphasizing the different styles and functions of these vehicles during that era. The colorful, detailed illustrations capture the elegance and popularity of carriage riding as a form of transportation and entertainment.
