"Prenten-Magazijn" (Picture Magazine) was a popular Dutch children’s publication in the 19th century. This particular issue, number nine, was published in 1853 and created by Jan Schuitemaker. The cover of this publication displays a simple title with bold, black text and a black ornate decorative frame. This "Prenten-Magazijn" was meant to be both educational and entertaining with 16 musical pieces and 56 illustrations that were meant to be colored by children.
