This 19th-century Dutch print by Glenisson & Zonen titled "Ziet, kindren hoe men in de jeugd, / Al spelende kan zijn verheugd; / Wilt immer braaf uw pligt betrachten / Dan hebt gij vreugd en heil te wachten," depicts eight scenes from daily life with accompanying Dutch text that provides a moralistic message. This kind of "moralistic" artwork, often called "prenten," was common in the Netherlands during this period and aimed to teach children about proper conduct. The print's visual style is simple and illustrative, featuring bold colors and clear lines, which made it accessible to a wide audience. The print's small size, measuring 394 mm in height and 322 mm in width, suggests it was intended for private viewing and home education.
