This artwork, "[(...)] wereld," is a series of eight individual panels depicting scenes from daily life in the early 19th century. Created between 1806 and 1858 by Willem Carl Wansleven (1779-1860), the panels are illustrative in style and utilize bright, simple colors. This print exemplifies the artist's focus on storytelling and his keen observation of the lives and activities of ordinary people. The scenes, each accompanied by a Dutch inscription, offer glimpses into the social, economic, and even religious aspects of the time, making this work an important cultural and historical document.
