Ambachten, bedrijven 1861 - 1929

"Ambachten, bedrijven" (Trades, Businesses) is a 19th-century Dutch print by Albertus Willem Sijthoff, depicting six different trades: the baker, the milliner, the printer, the fisherman, the washerwoman, and the gentleman. The artwork highlights the importance of these trades for Dutch society, depicting them with illustrative scenes and accompanying texts, likely in Dutch, describing the professions' benefits. The print's style is characteristic of the late 19th-century illustrations with its use of bright colors and intricate details, making it a unique example of social commentary and artistic representation of labor in the Netherlands.
