This 18th-century woodcut, titled "Een groote dikke vette Deensche gilde os, en een groote Turksche kameel", by S. & W. Koene, depicts a large ox and a camel in a side view. The two animals are drawn in the style of a natural history print, featuring detailed anatomical features and a scientific approach. While the text in Dutch underneath each animal provides descriptions, the work seems to be more focused on accurate portrayal than artistry. The simple yet effective composition underscores the educational purpose of this print.
