This print, created by Erve H. Rynders between 1831 and 1854, depicts scenes from the "Vermaak u, lieve jeugd, in uwen tijd van speelen" series. Featuring eight vignettes, it offers a glimpse into the lives of soldiers engaged in various tasks. Each scene is accompanied by a short poem in Dutch, adding a literary dimension to the artwork.
