"Het vermaakelijke A, B, C. voor de jonge jeugd" (1725-1780) by Johannes (II) Kannewet is an illustrated alphabet book designed to teach young children the letters of the Dutch alphabet. This colorful woodblock print, currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, features a grid of 26 squares, each containing an animal illustration paired with a letter and a short rhyme in Dutch. The style of the artwork reflects the popular 18th-century educational materials that combined playful imagery with moral instruction, making learning both engaging and informative for young audiences.
