Kinderen de Zardammer stier, Zijn groote wreedheid ziet gy hier 1822 - 1849

This 19th-century broadside print by Jan Hendrik de Lange depicts a gruesome scene from the Dutch folklore of the Zardammer stier, a legendary bull known for its ferocity. The artwork, titled "Kinderen de Zardammer Stier, Zijn groote wreedheid ziet gy hier", depicts the bull attacking a man while a woman, presumably the man’s wife, is thrown into the air as people try to escape the enraged animal. The print is a vivid example of the use of woodcuts in storytelling and is now housed in the Rijksmuseum.
