Kermisprent van de Amsterdamse porsters voor het jaar 1865 1865

"Kermisprent van de Amsterdamse porsters voor het jaar 1865" (1865) is an anonymous broadside, now held by the Rijksmuseum, that celebrates the Amsterdam "kermis," or annual fair. The piece features an illustration of a street scene in Amsterdam, possibly near a canal, and is accompanied by two rhyming poems that are likely addressed to the porters of Amsterdam. Though the artist remains unknown, the use of woodcut printing, the subject matter, and the style of the piece point to a popular, rather than fine art, tradition.
