"Zoo leert Historie prent en blaan / Der vadren deugd en grootsch bestaan. / Hunne offers 't vaderland gebracht, / Bewondert nog het nageslacht," is a print from 1806-1830 by Dutch artist Gerrit Oortman. It depicts 12 scenes in the history of the Netherlands, presented in a chronological order. The print features a combination of historical events and biblical stories, and it aimed to educate the public about the nation’s history. The intricate details and the artist’s attention to historical accuracy offer a glimpse into the cultural and historical context of the Netherlands during the early 19th century. This print, a fine example of Dutch historical illustration, is now part of the Rijksmuseum collection in Amsterdam.
