Bauren HochZeits=Kirchgang
An engraved sheet titled Bauren HochZeits=Kirchgang, dated 1730, probably German, showing peasant wedding scenes for a general audience of print collectors. The pictures are small, crisp black-and-white engravings in tidy rows: a village church and gateway at top, dancing and walking villagers in the middle, and dogs and figures on the ground below, offering a designer clear models for period costume, rustic architecture and crowd groupings.
