"Een zestal schepen, lieve jeugd!" is an 1806-1830 woodcut by Johan Noman, showcasing six different depictions of ships in a grid format, with the text "Wordt in deze’ Prent u aangeboden" at the top. Each ship is portrayed with detailed accuracy, highlighting the artistry of the woodcutter. Below the ships, are detailed images of various birds, including peacocks, a dove, and a grouse, each labeled with its Dutch name. This intricate work, held in the Rijksmuseum, is a fine example of Dutch printmaking of the period.
