This woodcut print, created by Johannes (II) Kannewet between 1725 and 1780, is a collection of 24 illustrations accompanied by Dutch proverbs. The artwork is characteristic of the 18th century's didactic approach to art, using visual narratives to teach valuable lessons. Each scene depicts a proverb, offering a glimpse into the social and cultural values of the time. This broadsheet, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, exemplifies the use of woodcut printing in disseminating knowledge and wisdom.
