"Deez' Dieren loopen in 't Veld en niet op straat, Leest tot uw Leering het geen hier onder staat" is a 18th-century Dutch broadside by Jan van Lee, printed in 1739-1786. The artwork depicts four animals, each with a short text underneath describing its behavior and symbolism. The broadside is an example of a popular form of didactic art in the 18th century, intended to teach children about the world around them. The visual style of the artwork is characteristic of the period, with simple line drawings and a limited color palette. The broadside would have been distributed by the artist, Jan van Lee, a book- and paperseller, and likely would have been displayed in public spaces such as market squares. The artwork is a good example of the use of visual and textual elements to convey moral and educational messages.
