Adriaen van de Venne's Tafereel van de belacchende werelt, a Dutch verse-and-emblem book on the Hague fair printed for the author at The Hague in 1635, with etchings after his designs by Daniel van den Bremden, aimed at literate townspeople. The plates crowd peasants, beggars, mountebanks, brawling women and stall-lined market squares into small horizontal frames, useful for period costume, fairground booths, dogs, and gesturing figure groups.
