"Het leven van Thijl Uilenspiegel" (The Life of Till Eulenspiegel) is a woodblock print series by Abraham van Alphen, dating from 1827-1866, and housed in the Rijksmuseum. The print, likely a page from a larger series, features 18 small, individual illustrations depicting various events in the life of the legendary rogue, Till Eulenspiegel. Each panel is accompanied by Dutch text describing the scene, creating a visual narrative. The woodcut technique lends itself to detailed and realistic depictions, making the print an interesting example of 19th-century storytelling through visual art.
