"Verkoper van pannen en sleutels" is a Dutch etching from 1613-1667 by an unknown artist. The print depicts a street scene with a variety of figures, including a street vendor selling pots and pans, a man looking out a window, and several people in the background. The vendor is holding a large pan and has a bag of other items slung over his shoulder. The print is a good example of Dutch realism and is a humorous depiction of everyday life in the 17th century. The inscription at the bottom of the print is in Latin and translates to: “The cook throws bread from above, he cleans the chimney, he follows with pottery dishes.”
