This colorful educational print, created by Dutch artist M. Hemeleers-van Houter between 1827 and 1894, features a series of hand-painted illustrations of birds. Each bird is framed in a square, and labeled with its Dutch name, offering a glimpse into 19th-century Dutch natural history. The piece, currently in the Rijksmuseum, is a fine example of Dutch illustrative art and a charming artifact of birdwatching.
