De tien vermakelickheden des / houweliks 1723 - 1748

This 18th-century print by Isaak van der Putte depicts "The Ten Pleasures of Marriage," a series of 12 scenes showing humorous and satirical depictions of married life. The detailed engravings illustrate the joys and challenges of marriage, from courting and marriage to domestic life. Each scene is accompanied by a Dutch inscription, providing further commentary on the depicted events. The print is a testament to the cultural importance of marriage in 18th-century Dutch society and a fascinating snapshot of the lives of ordinary people. It's a great example of satirical art in the Dutch Golden Age.
