"Spotprent op gouverneur-generaal Mijer, 1868" is a satirical print by Johan Michaël Schmidt Crans, created in 1867. The print depicts Governor-General Mijer in a gazebo, surrounded by a tropical landscape. The gazebo has a flag with the word "ZORG" (Care) on it, which is a critical commentary on Mijer's perceived inaction. A sign mentioning "Thurbecke" is seen, likely a reference to the Dutch politician Johan Rudolph Thorbecke. This print is a political cartoon commenting on Dutch colonialism and the governorship of Mijer in the Dutch East Indies.
