This woodcut print by Johannes Bouwer, titled "Komt hier nu kinders reyn / en lees dees vogels al / Gy hebt met groot en kleyn / hier hondert in het getal," is a vibrant example of 17th-century Dutch natural history illustration. Created between 1805 and 1808, it depicts 100 different birds in a grid-like format, each with its own name and brief description in Dutch. The detailed and meticulous illustrations showcase the artistic skill of the time, offering viewers a glimpse into the diverse avian world through the lens of scientific observation. The artwork currently resides in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam.
