This satirical print, part of the "Le Suprême Bon-Ton" series, depicts four men in exaggerated fashion, likely poking fun at the latest trends in Parisian menswear during the early 19th century. The anonymous artist highlights the long coats and tall hats that were in vogue, exaggerating their proportions for comedic effect. This hand-colored print, housed in the Rijksmuseum, provides a glimpse into the social commentary and sartorial trends of the era.
