Dees spreuken zijn tot uw vermaak / Een yder past op zijne zaak 1725 - 1780

This 18th-century broadside print by Johannes (II) Kannewet, titled *Dees spreuken zijn tot uw vermaak / Een yder past op zijne zaak*, is a series of 24 illustrated proverbs. The small black-and-white woodcuts depict humorous scenes with a Dutch proverb below each one. The proverbs are all about everyday life, often with moral lessons. This type of artwork was popular in the Netherlands during the 17th and 18th centuries and can be found in the collection of the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam.
