The quarrelsome woman, Johann Theodor de Bry, 1596 Canvas Print

A drot-in-a-quiving woman stands in front of a man sitting on a chair in a timid position. A 'crowing' chicken and a 'pecking' cockerel next to the chair. The man is compared to the crowing chicken, which mocks the reverse domestic situation, where the woman is in charge instead of the man. The text of the matching epigram in the album reads: E(e)n leeckende dack/ end een roockende Schouwe/ Ja daer de simme aenden Heert sit ensiet/ E(e)n craende Hinne/ een kyfachtige Vrouwe/ Is ongheluck in Huys/ ja quellinghe en verdriet. At the back right, next to the fireplace, a monkey.
