This satirical print by W. G. van de Sande, created between 1806 and 1814, depicts a comical "Grand Concert" of musicians. Each figure, depicted in a separate frame, is exaggerated and caricatured, highlighting the perceived absurdity of the different musical roles and instruments. The print is a humorous commentary on the world of music, using satirical humor to make light of the various performers and their instruments. This piece, now part of the Rijksmuseum collection, serves as a fascinating glimpse into the social attitudes and artistic perceptions of the early 19th century.
