Begrafenis van de rijke man 1551

"The Burial of the Rich Man" is a 1551 engraving by Dirck Volckertsz Coornhert, a Dutch artist known for his printmaking. The engraving portrays a scene of a man being buried, with a figure digging a grave, and a group of hooded figures in the background, likely representing mourners. The scene is full of dramatic detail, with the figure of the dead man being consumed by a gaping maw of some sort. This piece is a visual reminder of the fragility of human life, a theme that was popular in Coornhert's work.
