"XVI Dat hof is uyt" is an engraving by Roemer Visscher, a Dutch artist, from 1614. This print is part of a series of images that illustrate Visscher's book "Sinnepoppen." The book contains satirical proverbs and riddles in Dutch. The engraving depicts a pig, symbolizing a person who has overindulged and is "out of the house" or "out of their mind". The image was likely intended to be humorous and critical of those who overindulged in food and drink. This particular engraving is part of the collection at the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam.
