Menschen uit het daaglijks leven, Daar hun handwerk u bekend [(...)] 1823 - 1836

This 1823–1836 print by W. & J. Hissink, titled "Menschen uit het daaglijks leven, Daar hun handwerk u bekend […]," depicts eight scenes of everyday life. The scenes, each with a Dutch caption, show various occupations, including a carpenter, a cooper, a baker, a tailor, a brewer, and a basket maker. Each vignette is a self-contained narrative, demonstrating a variety of working-class jobs that were common in the Netherlands during the 19th century. The print was likely intended as a didactic tool, showcasing the skills and hard work of ordinary people. The use of bright, bold colors and simple, clear lines, characteristic of 19th-century Dutch folk art, enhances the visual appeal and clarity of the work.
