*"Zie, Jeugd! hoe zich Urbaan gedraagt / En Izabel haar Lot beklaagt / Maar zie ook hem, die trouw dorst breeken, / Weêr aangenomen op zyn smeeken."* (See, Youth! how Urban behaves / And Izabel laments her fate / But see also him, who dares break faith, / Again accepted at his plea) is an example of a Dutch *prentenboeken* (picture book) from the 1700s-1800s. The book consists of a series of smaller images, or vignettes, that tell a story of a young man and woman. Created by the erven weduwe Cornelis Stichter, this print is a narrative art piece that would have been enjoyed by the Dutch public and a fascinating look into the stories, traditions, and artistic practices of the time. The Rijksmuseum currently houses this print.
