Het nieuw vermakelijk luilekkerland 1827 - 1894

This 19th-century Dutch broadside, "Het nieuw vermakelijk luilekkerland," by M. Hemeleers-van Houter, is a satirical illustration of Dutch life. The artwork depicts a series of humorous scenes with accompanying Dutch text, likely showcasing social commentary on laziness, work, and leisure. The colorful, simplistic style, characterized by blocky figures and bright colors, reflects the popular printmaking techniques of the time and the broadsheet's intended audience. Currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, the artwork offers a glimpse into Dutch social life and humor during this period.
