This Dutch print, created between 1806 and 1830 by Johan Noman, depicts various hunting scenes. The print, titled "Ofschoon dit jagen kan vermaken," translates to "Although this hunting can be entertaining," and features a rhyming couplet emphasizing the importance of pursuing "useful matters." The artwork is an example of the didactic genre, common in the 19th century, which aimed to instruct viewers through visual narratives. The print’s detailed engravings and lively depictions of the hunting scenes offer a glimpse into Dutch society's engagement with nature and wildlife during the period. The work can be found in the collection of the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam.
