Figuren en bezigheden 1828 - 1849

"Figuren en bezigheden" (1828-1849) by Erve Wijsmuller is a series of 12 vignettes depicting everyday life in Amsterdam. Each scene is accompanied by a humorous caption in Dutch. The scenes are presented in a simple, almost childlike style, reminiscent of woodcuts. This series of vignettes is a great example of popular graphic art in the Netherlands during the 19th century, offering a glimpse into the daily lives and social interactions of ordinary people.
