Dood van Albrecht Beiling, 1426 1842 - 1844

"Dood van Albrecht Beiling" (Death of Albrecht Beiling) is an 1842-1844 etching by Johann Wilhelm (I) Kaiser, depicting the death of Albrecht Beiling, a Dutch farmer. The scene shows a group of people gathered around a grave, with a priest leading a prayer and a man digging the grave. The windmill in the background contributes to the somber, rural setting. This work, now part of the Rijksmuseum collection, offers a glimpse into 19th-century life and death rituals in the Netherlands.
