Voorziet u dezen tyd, opdat de winterdagen, / Uw by een warmen haerd, ook niet te veel doen klagen, / Maer 't is de groote vraeg: schoon dat men slagtmaend telt, / Hebt gy voor vleesch en spek een goede beurs met geld? 1833 - 1900

This 19th-century Dutch broadside, produced by Glenisson & Zonen, is a satirical depiction of a butcher's life. Composed of a series of illustrated vignettes, the work tells a narrative story, likely using a rhyming text to enhance its comedic and cautionary effect. This piece is reminiscent of 18th and 19th-century Dutch print culture, where satirical prints were often used to comment on social and political issues, in this case, the life of a butcher.
