De misleyden: de ambassadeur der Labberlotten vertoont zich voor het venster van de herberg 't Bokki in de Haarlemmerhout 1750 - 1820

Abraham Delfos's etching "De misleyden: de ambassadeur der Labberlotten vertoont zich voor het venster van de herberg 't Bokki in de Haarlemmerhout" is a satirical depiction of a group of Labberlotten, a satirical term for a group of people often associated with frivolity and lack of intelligence, who are caught in a humorous situation. This scene, dating from 1750-1820, captures the essence of Dutch satirical art, playfully exposing social follies. The detailed etching, currently housed at the Rijksmuseum, showcases Delfos's mastery of depicting everyday life in a humorous, yet insightful manner. The scene unfolds outside a tavern, with the Labberlotten caught in a lighthearted and comical situation, making it a great example of Dutch satirical art.
