Matroos, infanterie en Zeeuws marinier in kleding uit de zestiende eeuw 1857

This 1857 print depicts three figures in 16th-century dress, representing different types of Dutch military personnel: a "Matroos" (sailor), a "Voetknecht" (foot soldier), and a "Zeeuwsch zeesoldaat" (Zeeland naval soldier). The anonymous artist skillfully uses linework and shading to illustrate their clothing and weaponry, providing insights into military fashion and costume of the era. The print, housed in the Rijksmuseum, is a valuable resource for understanding the visual culture of 19th-century Netherlands.
