Zoo kan het fabeldicht u leeren en vermaken, / Door een verscheidenheid van zonderlinge zaken. / Geef dan, leergrage jeugd! ook fabelleer gehoor, / En dring zoo meer en meer tot waar- en braafheid door c. 1806 - 1837

This 19th-century Dutch broadside print by Schalekamp & Van de Grampel, titled “Zoo kan het fabeldicht u leeren en vermaken,” depicts six illustrated fables. Each panel features a scene from a well-known fable, accompanied by a short rhyme in Dutch explaining the moral of the story. The print was likely intended for children, using a simplified visual style to illustrate the fables and encourage moral learning through the playful format of storytelling. The print's colorful illustrations, featuring animals and human figures engaging in various activities, are executed with a sense of charm and naivete.
