1685 Beer Cornelis Dusart Court Farmer Farmers Farmers Wife Haarlem Hand Tobacco Mentioned

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this 1685 engraving by Cornelis Dusart, we are transported to the charming countryside of Haarlem. The scene depicts a humorous and lighthearted moment between a farmer, his wife, and another farmer who is attempting to court her. The central focus of the image is the interaction between the two farmers. With a mischievous smile on his face, one farmer tries to win over the affections of his companion by offering her tobacco and beer. He gently places his hand on hers, perhaps hoping for a reciprocal gesture or sign of interest. The details in this print are exquisite - from the intricate engravings that bring each character to life, to the delicate shading that adds depth and dimension. The artist's skillful use of paper as a medium further enhances its visual appeal. This artwork not only captures an amusing anecdote but also provides us with insight into rural life during this period. It reminds us that even amidst hard work and daily chores, there was room for humor and romance. As we admire this historical piece from Liszt Collection, let us appreciate both its artistic value and its ability to transport us back in time - allowing us to witness a playful moment between these farmers in their pursuit of love and companionship.
