This 1836 textile print by the Dutch printer A.J. Bruinsma, titled "Doek met steendruk versierd: Leeuwarder stadsgezichten en twaalf afbeeldingen van Friese klederdrachten" showcases a collection of engravings depicting Leeuwarden cityscapes and twelve examples of Frisian traditional dress. Arranged in a grid format, the work includes architectural views, portraits, and a central circular depiction of Leeuwarden, demonstrating the importance of both urban life and local identity in Frisian culture. The print's size and detail make it a valuable historical document for understanding 19th-century Dutch life and fashion.
