1546
From the collection of Cleveland Museum of Art
The Peasant Wedding or the Twelve Months: 11-Martinus Wintermon 12-Nicolaus Cristmon is a 1546 by Sebald Beham, a Renaissance work, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This etching shows four people in rough clothes, standing close together. Two men on the left look like they’re talking, one holding a staff. On the right, a woman carries a basket, and another man leans against her, gesturing with his hand. The ground is bare, with a few plants in the corner. The names at the top—*Martinus Wintermon* and *Nicolaus Cristmon*—are likely the months November and December, suggesting this is part of a series about seasonal work. Look up Hans Sebald Beham next to see more of his sharp, detailed prints.
Sebald Beham (1500–1550) was a German painter and printmaker, mainly known for his very small engravings.
