"Ziet, kinderen! hier twee Azianen; / Dan volgen er twee Afrikanen; / Drie zijn er uit Austrazia, / En één slechts uit Amerika," is a colorful woodcut print by Christiaan Jacob Schuyling, created between 1820 and 1838. The artwork depicts eight figures representing different continents, each in their traditional attire and holding objects associated with their culture. The print is a prime example of 19th-century Dutch art and exemplifies the growing interest in global cultures and the diverse populations of the world during this period. The artwork is characterized by its simple lines and bold colors, typical of woodcuts, which made it accessible to a wide audience. It served as an educational tool, offering viewers a glimpse into the various cultural traditions and dress of people from different continents. The print is an important piece in understanding the evolution of European perspectives on global diversity during the 19th century.
