[Wat voor monsters / wat voor dieren/) Geefd on niet de zee al uyt [(...)] 1711 - 1723

This illustrated broadside, created by Jacobus Conynenberg between 1711 and 1723, is a fascinating example of early modern Dutch printmaking. The work features a series of vignettes depicting various sea creatures, each accompanied by a short rhyming text in Dutch describing their habits and characteristics. This was a popular form of educational entertainment in the 17th and 18th centuries, offering a glimpse into the popular understanding of the natural world. The work is now housed in the Rijksmuseum and offers insights into Dutch culture, art, and natural history during this period.
