"Kinderdeugden" (1844) by Jan Schuitemaker is a print that illustrates four virtues for children. The four virtues are "Self-sacrifice", "Rationality", "Friendship", and "Brotherhood". The print is divided into four separate scenes with text in Dutch describing the virtues. This print is a unique example of a didactic artwork, intended to teach children about morals and values. The artist, Jan Schuitemaker, is known for his work as a publisher and illustrator, and his work often focused on themes of education and morality. The print is a valuable resource for understanding the social and cultural values of the 19th century in the Netherlands.
