This 18th-century broadside print, titled "Komt hier nu Kinders reyn / en lees dees Vogels al / Gy hebt met groot en kleyn / hier honderd in 't getal." created by Jan van Lee, a paper merchant, features a grid of illustrated birds. The print is likely a Dutch alphabet book for children, with the image displaying a variety of bird species depicted in a simple style that is easily recognizable, though the exact species is not always easy to identify. This style of artwork was common for instructional purposes, and served to teach children about their world while also being a visually appealing and engaging learning tool.
