Zo ziet men groote lieden ryden, / In koetsen, op 't gebrek te myden [(...)] 1715 - 1813

This satirical print, created by the heirs of Cornelis Stichter between 1715 and 1813, depicts two carriages. The top carriage is described in Dutch as a "Boeren-Wagen" (farmer's wagon) and the bottom carriage is a "Koets" (coach). Both images highlight the social differences between the rich and the poor in 18th-century society, with the wealthy riding in grand coaches, while the poor are forced to travel in basic carts. The print’s humorous and satirical tone is evident in the accompanying text and provides commentary on social class and transportation during this time. It is a valuable historical document for understanding social hierarchy in the Netherlands.
