About this work

Satirical print depicting the burial of the Nederlandsche Etsclub. The Etching Club dissolved itself on 13 January 1896.

Koster, Hendrik J. Haverman, and Jan Toorop. Marius Bauer has depicted himself as the treasurer of the Etching Club with a bag inscribed 'debt'. Following this group are the female members in a carriage: Etha Fles, Wally Moes, and Thérèse Schwartze. At the rear of the procession, 'De Oude Garde'. Published as a supplement of 'De Kroniek' on 19 January 1896.
