Verschillende taferelen 1873

*Verschillende taferelen* (1873) by De Ruyter & Meijer is a black and white print that features several vignettes of children engaged in various activities. The central vignette shows a group of children playing in a garden, while the other vignettes depict children engaged in activities such as climbing, fishing, and playing with a ball. Each vignette is accompanied by a short Dutch rhyme or caption that describes the scene. This work is an example of a genre known as "children's literature" and was likely intended to entertain and educate young audiences. The print's delicate lines and detailed depictions of children in everyday life contribute to its charming appeal and make it a valuable example of 19th-century printmaking.
