EDITORS COMMENTS
The Misled Ambassador Rascals Exhibit Window at Bokki Tavern captures a whimsical moment in history, brought to life through this photo print. Taken in the enchanting Haarlemmerhout, the image showcases an amusing prank orchestrated by Jacob Campo Weyerman and his associates back in 1739. Intriguingly, the photograph portrays a group of onlookers gazing curiously at the window of t Bokje inn. What catches their attention is a painted face protruding from behind the glass pane - none other than the mischievous ambassador of the Labberlotten himself! This clever disguise brings laughter and astonishment to those who witness it. Adding to the spectacle are two trumpeters standing on either side of the inn's entrance, their faces playfully painted black. Their presence amplifies both curiosity and amusement among passersby. Interestingly, positioned before t Bokki tavern are two quakers dressed solemnly in black attire, clutching bibles tightly in their hands. However, upon closer inspection, one realizes that these figures too have been part of this elaborate ruse - with buttocks cleverly disguised as "partes posteriores". This vibrant canvas print immortalizes not only Weyerman's ingenious joke but also pays homage to artists such as Cornelis Troost who contributed to its creation. With its rich oil paint hues and meticulous attention to detail, this artwork transports viewers back into an era where humor knew no bounds. Please
