"Floskaartjes" (Flower Cards), a woodcut print by Johan Noman, created between 1806 and 1830, features 36 distinct circular images within frames, each depicting a different person, profession, or character with a numbered label. The piece is likely a playful representation of Dutch social life, illustrating various occupations and roles. The intricate detail of the engravings, especially the clothing and objects, adds to the artwork's charm and historical significance. "Floskaartjes" is part of the Rijksmuseum collection and serves as a valuable document of Dutch society during the early 19th century.
