"Bruiloft van Doris en Roosje" (Wedding of Doris and Roosje), a woodblock print by Franciscus Antonius Beersmans, depicts a series of scenes from a Dutch wedding celebration. The print is divided into six panels, each illustrating a different aspect of the wedding festivities. The scenes are accompanied by Dutch and French text, adding a unique cultural and historical dimension to the work. Beersmans, known for his work in the genre of broadsheets, captures the joyful chaos and traditional practices associated with Dutch weddings in the 19th century. The print's vibrant colors, detailed figures, and charming details make it a compelling visual document of a cherished Dutch custom.
