This image shows six people dressed up for church. Three are women wearing long skirts and head coverings. The other three are men in coats and hats. One man holds a cane, another carries a book, and the third has a fancy cloak. The labels say these are people from Zurich going to church in 1751. The artist drew them carefully to show how they dressed back then. Next, look up engraving to see how artists like this made detailed prints.
