This 1816-1897 artwork, "Het nieuwe Arlequin-spel," by Aron Hijman Binger, is a game board depicting a blackfaced Harlequin holding a bag with the number 7 on it. The game board is surrounded by a garland of leaves and has 12 numbered circles for players to advance around, suggesting it's a type of board game. The artwork, likely printed for use as a game, offers insight into the popular culture of the time and the imagery associated with the figure of Harlequin in 19th-century Dutch society.
