This anonymous 1858 lithograph, titled “Vier kinderen bij een prenthandelaar”, depicts four children gathered around a print seller. The print seller displays various images in his shop, possibly for sale. This print is a charming glimpse into 19th-century Dutch life and depicts a scene of commerce and childhood. The children’s eager expressions suggest they are fascinated by the artwork, which likely captures the appeal of this print for a general audience. The work is small in size, measuring 213 mm in height and 135 mm in width.
