De geschiedenis van Blauwbaard 1850 - 1881

This 1850-1881 illustrated broadside by Dutch artist Dirk Noothoven van Goor is a visual interpretation of the popular folk tale, *Bluebeard*. It's an early example of sequential art, featuring six illustrated panels that represent key scenes from the story. These are accompanied by Dutch text, likely intended for children and possibly used as a learning tool. It exemplifies the tradition of using visual storytelling to convey narratives, particularly popular in 19th-century Europe. *De geschiedenis van Blauwbaard* showcases the artistic style and technical limitations of this genre and provides a fascinating glimpse into Dutch cultural and social history of the time.
