78 5778 Caricature Hunin J 1770 1851 
78 5778 Caricature Hunin J 1770 1851 
= A rare Belgian folk print. Since medieval times there has been a tradition that during processions in the city of Mechelen a large puppet is carried around and tossed up in the air, a so-called 'Vuile bruidegom' or 'Sotscop'. According to contemporary sources in 1775 the puppet was tossed accidently into the audience along the route, when a man, a 'Jacobus de Leeuw' from Antwerp, caught or tried to deflect the incoming puppet. The bystanders accused him of stealing the puppet and beat him up. He was held in captivity but managed to escape back to Antwerp. The puppet was from then on, called an Op-Signoorken (derived from the derogatory nickname sinjoren for people from Antwerp) and was kept in a box or cabinet with lock for fear of theft. The artist has created other prints with this subject, so it was perhaps published as a yearly premium.
