Musicerende figuren zittend rond een tafel 1731

This etching, created in 1731 by Michel Aubert, depicts four figures in a garden setting. The figures, dressed in clothing reminiscent of traditional Chinese attire, are playing a game around a small table. The scene is set against a backdrop of mountains and a palm tree, suggesting a romanticized view of Chinese culture popular in Europe at the time. This print reflects the 18th-century fascination with the East, known as chinoiserie, and serves as a valuable historical artifact showcasing artistic expressions of the period.
