Cap. de la Bande, Ciurlo en Fritellino 1668 - 1707

This etching by Anthonie de Winter (1653-1707) depicts a satirical scene with three figures labeled "Cap. de la Bande," "Ciurlo," and "Fritellino." The print is likely from a series of satirical works that were popular in the Netherlands during the late 17th century. The scene is filled with humorous details and exaggerated gestures, suggesting a commentary on contemporary societal follies. The title “Titulus Stultorum” on the scroll held by the central figure further reinforces the theme of folly. The detailed engraving style and the use of humor are hallmarks of Dutch art of the period. This artwork, "Cap. de la Bande, Ciurlo en Fritellino," is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum.
