This woodblock print, "Elk handwerk geeft een spoor tot nieuwe Vlijt en Deugd, / Dit biedt hier 't achttal aan, ten Leerbeeld voor de jeugd," by weduwe C. Kok-van Kolm, depicts eight scenes of different trades in the Netherlands. The print was likely intended as an educational tool for children, showcasing the value of hard work and skill. The scenes are presented in a simple and direct style, using bold lines and clear contrasts to emphasize the figures and tools of each trade. This artwork, now at the Rijksmuseum, is an example of 19th-century Dutch didactic art, which aimed to teach moral lessons through visual imagery.
