Voorschriften voor hofkleding 1900 - 1940

"Voorschriften voor hofkleding" (Regulations for Court Dress), created between 1900 and 1940 by Dutch artist Patricq Kroon, is a satirical cartoon depicting two figures, one in elaborate court attire and the other in military uniform, standing on a patterned floor. The drawing features the artist’s signature and is executed in black ink. The scene is rendered with a playful and exaggerated style, highlighting the absurdity of the subject matter. Kroon's work often touched on social commentary and humor, and this cartoon is a quintessential example of his style, offering a glimpse into the fashion and social norms of the early 20th century.
