Carel Allard's "De tien plagen voor Frankrijk volgens de voorspellingen van Mr. Bickerstaf voor het jaar 1708" is a 1708 broadside print that predicts ten plagues to befall France. The print includes an illustration of a man kneeling and pointing towards the circular diagram, which contains the ten plagues, each marked with a number and text in Dutch. This satirical broadside print is an example of the popular genre of "prophecies" that were common in the Netherlands in the 17th and 18th centuries.
