The Peasant Wedding or the Twelve Months: No. 7 is a 1546 by Sebald Beham, a Renaissance work, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This print shows five rough-looking people in a messy scene. One woman in a long dress stands in the middle, grabbing a man’s arm. Two soldiers with swords and helmets push her. Another man plays a bagpipe, and a third holds a jug. The ground is dirt, and the whole thing looks like a fight. The text at the top is German and might mean this is part of a series about months or seasons. The artist drew it in 1546. Look up Renaissance next to see how this style shaped art.
Sebald Beham (1500–1550) was a German painter and printmaker, mainly known for his very small engravings.
