This 18th-century artwork, "Hier ziet gy jonge jeugd mits dezen, De vier-getijde des jaars geprezen," by Johannes (II) Kannewet, is a Dutch broadside, a type of printed sheet, featuring four scenes depicting the four seasons. These scenes likely depict common activities associated with each season in rural Dutch life. The artwork's title translates to "Here you see young people with these, the four seasons of the year praised," suggesting a focus on the cyclical nature of time and rural life. This print, now in the Rijksmuseum, offers a glimpse into the daily lives of Dutch people in the 1700s.
