This wood-engraved print by Dutch artist Christiaan Jacob Schuyling depicts the legendary story of Swiss folk hero William Tell. The artist, known for his illustrations, creates a narrative sequence using eight scenes, each captioned in Dutch, that recount the tale of Tell's resistance against tyranny. The print, completed between 1820-1838, was likely part of a larger series, making it a popular and accessible form of storytelling. Though the size of the print is small, it stands out for its meticulous detailing, vibrant colors, and engaging narrative.
