Dwerg met een grote pruik, de hoed in de hand, 1720 1718 - 1720

"Dwerg met een grote pruik, de hoed in de hand" is an etching by Andries van (Sr.) Buysen, dating back to 1718-1720. It depicts a caricature of a man with a large wig, a wide-brimmed hat in hand, and an exaggeratedly long nose. The inscription below the figure, in Dutch, is a satirical poem that ridicules the individual depicted. This artwork is a prime example of the use of etching as a medium for political and social commentary during the Baroque era. It is held in the collection of the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam.
