Afbeeldingh hoe seven wyven vechten om een mans broeck ende de vrou de broeck aentrecht [(...)] Possibly 1700 - 1865

This anonymous woodcut print from the 17th or 18th century, titled "Afbeeldingh hoe seven wyven vechten om een mans broeck ende de vrou de broeck aentrecht" (Image of how seven women fight over a man’s trousers and the woman puts them on), depicts three scenes of Dutch daily life. The first scene features a man holding a pail of water and a shovel, the second depicts a man urinating against a wall, and the third shows a woman putting on a man’s pants. The three scenes are accompanied by Dutch captions, which offer a glimpse into 17th century Dutch colloquialisms and social satire. This print exemplifies the use of woodcuts to create humorous, satirical depictions of daily life, which were popular in the Netherlands during this period.
