"Tabel van 16 verschillende voetmaten" (Table of 16 different foot measures) is a meticulously drawn chart by B. Winghofer dating back to 1852-1855. The artwork consists of 16 vertical columns, each representing a different foot measurement from various regions, including the Netherlands, England, and Germany. The lines indicate the precise length of each foot measurement in relation to each other, creating a visual comparison of different units of measurement. This chart demonstrates the visual language of scientific illustration and provides a fascinating glimpse into the diverse system of measurements used in the 19th century.
