"Hochzeitstanz eines buckeligen Paares in einem Empireraum bei Kerzenlicht" (Wedding Dance of a Hunchbacked Couple in an Empire Room by Candlelight) is a 1786 etching by Italian artist Augusto Nicodemo (1761-unknown). The work depicts a lively scene, likely at a wedding celebration, in which a hunchbacked couple dances at the center of the composition.
