"U(lykkelige) H(ændelser)" Nr. 7 1787

"U(lykkelige) H(ændelser)" Nr. 7 is an anonymous 18th century etching. The work depicts a group of figures climbing a precarious ladder to a tower with a birdhouse at the top, while others fall or lie injured at the bottom. The satirical imagery, with its emphasis on the inevitability of misfortune, suggests a playful commentary on human folly. The print is a fine example of graphic art from the 1780s, notable for its detail and use of light and shadow.
