This etching by Italian artist Giuseppe Maria Mitelli, created around 1683, depicts a humorous scene of a man being carried on a chair by two men. The central figure, dressed in a hat and jacket, appears to be a wealthy individual. He is being carried by a pair of men in a playful, almost mocking manner. The artwork is a good example of Mitelli's satirical approach to human behavior, capturing a light-hearted moment of social commentary through vivid detail and expressive figures. The work, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, is a testament to Mitelli's skill in portraying everyday life and social interactions in a witty and engaging manner.
