Kinderspelen 1787 - 1822

"Kinderspelen," created between 1787 and 1822 by Alexander Cranendoncq (1799-1869), depicts a series of nine charming scenes illustrating traditional Dutch children’s games. The print, now part of the Rijksmuseum collection, is a playful example of the genre of children’s literature and offers a glimpse into the daily life and pastimes of young people in the late 18th and early 19th centuries.
