De rijke tafel 1867 - 1875

"De rijke tafel" (The Rich Table) is an 1867-1875 lithograph by Dirk Jurriaan Sluyter, depicting a scene of opulence and feasting. The image captures a lively gathering, likely of wealthy individuals, seated around a laden table. The composition focuses on the central figures, their expressions and gestures suggesting a moment of animated conversation or perhaps a toast. Sluyter's detailed depiction of the interior setting and the elaborate costumes worn by the figures contributes to the sense of grandeur and social hierarchy associated with this scene. The print is housed in the Rijksmuseum, offering a glimpse into Dutch societal life during the 19th century.
