"Leert, kinderen uit deez' prent van Genovefa's leven, / Dat, als er onspoed treft, de deugd geduld kan geven," is a Dutch woodcut print created by the Gebroeders Van Kapel between 1820 and 1837. The print is divided into nine panels, each depicting a scene from the life of Saint Genevieve, the patron saint of Paris. The scenes are accompanied by Dutch verses that tell the story of Saint Genevieve’s life and encourage viewers to learn from her example of patience in the face of adversity. The woodcut print, with its simplified lines and bold colors, is a fine example of folk art, appealing to a broad audience.
