Adriaen van Ostade, master of the Dutch Golden Age

Among his famous works are numerous kermesses and tavern scenes where humor blends with documentary precision. Adriaen van Ostade's art reveals a deep humanity: each face, each posture tells a story, making the art print of the Kermesse a living testimony of his time.
