"Ziet, kinderen! wat nu is geschied, / Van de Wasscher met zijn Griet […]" (See, children! what has happened, / From the washerman and his wife […]) is a 19th-century Dutch print by Philippus Jacobus Brepols, depicting a humorous fable about a washerman and his wife who are transformed into apes. Composed of numerous vignettes and text in Dutch and French, the print humorously satirizes human nature, using the transformation of the washerman and his wife into apes to comment on society and its social ills. The print was created in the period 1800-1833 and is now held in the Rijksmuseum.
