EDITORS COMMENTS
This menu card print dates back to 27 April 1889, created by the Dutch artist Theo van Hoytema. The image showcases an elaborate menu card, proudly displaying the word "Dinner" spelled out in flags, against the backdrop of a bustling city scene. The auditorium, hortus, and museum of natural history can be seen in the distance, their grand facades and statues standing tall against the clear blue sky. A queue of people can be seen forming at the entrance of the museum, adding to the vibrant street scene. Theo van Hoytema masterfully captures the essence of the 19th century with this watercolor painting. The alphabet flags, a common method of communication during this era, add an intriguing touch to the menu card. The use of flags as a creative way to display the word "Dinner" is both innovative and visually appealing. The architectural wonders of the city, including the Rijksmuseum and its statues, add to the historic charm of the scene. Theo van Hoytema's attention to detail is evident in the way he captures the colors and textures of the buildings, the flags, and the people in the queue. This painting is a beautiful representation of the Netherlands in the late 19th century, showcasing the rich cultural heritage of the Low Countries. The use of watercolor paint adds a sense of depth and texture to the image, making it a truly stunning work of art.
