This 19th-century print by J. Robyn depicts scenes from the life of Albertus Magnus, a German Dominican friar, philosopher, and theologian. Each scene is accompanied by Dutch text, offering a visual and textual narrative. This piece, part of a larger series, provides a fascinating glimpse into the early modern Dutch understanding of this influential figure, highlighting his virtues and the lessons to be learned from his example. This type of work, known as a broadside, was popular in the 17th and 18th centuries for disseminating information and entertainment. The print, titled "De schikking van het Albestier / Werkt overäl, nu ginds, dan hier. / Dies let, ô jeugd! op die bedryven, / Welke u daar 't voorbeeld van beschryven", is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam.
