Kind'ren weest tog niet bevreest / als gy deese helden leest 1683 - 1692

This 17th-century woodcut print, titled "Kind'ren weest tog niet bevreest / als gy deese helden leest," created by the widow of Gijsbert de Groot, features a grid of 12 individual vignettes. Each square depicts a different heroic figure from classical literature and history, such as Atlas, Samson, Hercules, Roland, and Achilles, each illustrated with distinct attributes and actions associated with their stories. This artwork, now in the Rijksmuseum, showcases the popularity of these ancient narratives and their enduring appeal in the Dutch Golden Age.
