This title page from 1787 is an anonymous work that documents the uniforms of the "Genootschap tot Nut der Schutterij" (Society for the Benefit of the Shooting Guild) in Amsterdam. The title page is a simple yet elegant example of Dutch typography, with ornate flourishes around the title and the date "Anno 1787" in script. This artwork offers a glimpse into the history and traditions of this important guild in Amsterdam and is an interesting example of early Dutch graphic design.
