This 18th-century board game, "Het nieuw en vermaeckelyck gansespel" by Erven Hendrik van der Putte, showcases a whimsical design. The game board resembles a winding path with arches and numbered squares. The print features decorative elements, including animal figures, and is a testament to the popularity of board games during this period. This artwork provides a glimpse into the leisure activities of 18th-century Dutch society, as well as the artistic style of the time. This piece is a delightful example of early Dutch graphic art and is on display at the Rijksmuseum.
