This 19th-century print, created by Dutch artist Dirk Jurriaan Sluyter, showcases four distinct scenes. The composition, organized in a grid format, features a shepherd and shepherdess, a girl with kittens, a grandmother telling a story, and Mary at the foot of the cross. The scenes, rendered in black and white, evoke a sense of domesticity and religious devotion, typical of Sluyter's style. The print's modest size and intimate subject matter suggest it was likely intended for a private audience, perhaps a family setting.
