Pieter van der Heyden - Dans op boerenbruiloft

description

Summary

Verschillende dansende paren op een boerenbruiloft. Op de achtergrond de bruid, zittend achter een schaal met muntgeld. Gasten brengen cadeaus en geld. Onder de voorstelling op de cartouche twee vierregelige verzen in het Nederlands.

A cartouche or cartouch is an oval design with a slightly convex surface, typically edged with ornamental scrollwork. It is used to hold a painted or low relief design. In Early Modern design, since the early 16th century, the cartouche is a scrolling frame device, derived originally from Italian cartoccia. Such cartouches are characteristically stretched, pierced and scrolling (illustration, left). Another cartouche figures prominently in the title page of Giorgio Vasari's Lives, framing a minor vignette with a device of pierced and scrolling papery cartoccia.
