Wonderlyke en zeldzaame historie van Thyl Ulenspiegel 1776 - 1813

This wood-engraving, *Wonderlyke en zeldzaame Historie van Thyl Ulenspiegel*, is a 19th-century Dutch broadside by Johannes Seydel. The artwork is a series of vignettes that depict the life of the legendary folk hero Tyl Ulenspiegel. Seydel’s broadside is a visual chronicle of the hero’s mischievous exploits that was meant to be both entertaining and educational, appealing to a wide audience. The image’s small dimensions and grid-like composition recall the style of popular chapbooks from the period.
