"Ourson, den wildeman, word jongheyd, u gegeven: / Wees niet aen hem gelyk door ongeregeld leven / Jeunesse, d'un Ourson, si vous lisez l'image / C'est pour vous corriger, pour que vous soyez sage" is a 19th-century Dutch broadside print depicting a series of vignettes telling the story of a young bear who is raised by a family of humans. Created between 1833-1856 by Glenisson & Van Genechten, the artwork uses vibrant colors and simple linework to depict scenes of the young bear's life. This series of 16 individual illustrations highlights the importance of family, morality, and societal norms through the story of the young bear, providing a glimpse into the world of 19th-century Dutch didactic illustration.
