This 19th-century broadside, printed by Mindermann & Co. in Amsterdam, features a series of 12 vignettes depicting various scenes from a soldier's life. Each image is accompanied by a short poem in Dutch, likely intended for a young audience, illustrating the duties and challenges of a Dutch soldier. The engravings, with their simple lines and bold figures, are characteristic of popular prints of the era, known for their directness and accessibility. The broadside is a testament to the enduring appeal of military imagery, highlighting both the heroism and the hardships of military service.
