This 1641 print by Crispijn van de Passe (II) is an example of a printed book illustration. The artist was active between 1597 and 1670 and produced numerous prints for books, particularly those with religious themes. This print, titled "Kwatrijnen bij voorstellingen van twee mennistenzusjes," is a Dutch-language poem that includes religious and social commentary. The poem appears to be part of a larger collection of works focusing on the life of Anabaptists, a group who were often persecuted for their beliefs during this time. This piece is now part of the Rijksmuseum collection in Amsterdam.
