Zomer- en wintervreugd 1761 - 1804

This 18th-century print, "Zomer- en wintervreugd" (Summer and Winter Pleasures), by the workshop of Jacobus van Egmont depicts two scenes of Dutch life in the seasons of summer and winter. The top panel shows a farmer transporting passengers in a wagon, while the bottom panel shows a group of people enjoying a winter sled ride. The two scenes highlight the simple joys and seasonal activities enjoyed by the Dutch people of the time. This charming print is a prime example of 18th-century Dutch art, focusing on daily life and social customs.
