Kaberdar vraagt Liddy om met zijn zoon Fazir te trouwen 1790

This etching, "Kaberdar vraagt Liddy om met zijn zoon Fazir te trouwen", was created by Daniel Nikolaus Chodowiecki in 1790. The artwork depicts a scene of a marriage proposal, with the central figures of Kaberdar and Liddy surrounded by other characters. The engraving style, common for Chodowiecki, showcases detailed figures and expressions, conveying a narrative through a visually rich medium. The piece, housed in the Rijksmuseum, offers a glimpse into social interactions and courtship practices of the late 18th century. The text below the scene, "Godt segne euch Kinder!", adds to the narrative, suggesting a blessing for the couple. This artwork is a fine example of Chodowiecki's mastery in etching and capturing everyday life through detailed scenes.
