Centsprent: Hier ziet gy Jonge Jeugd mits dezen, De Vier-getijde des Jaars geprezen. 86.Catchpenny print. Children’s print showing the four seasons and corresponding activities. The first illustration, spring, shows farmers sowing in the foreground, and pruning trees in the back, accompanied by the verse ‘De vroege Lente praald met keur van schoone Bloemen / Die elk om haar Cieraad / en heerlijkheyd mag roemen.’ Summer depicts people and a cowing resting in the field, where the trees have come into leaf, and while in the background a couple is taking a stroll. The verse below reads: ‘De Zomer schenkt vermaak aan Klaverrijke Dalen / Daar Menchen / ende Vee / een frissen adem halen.’ In autumn, men are moving baskets and barrels, and transporting them by ship, accompanied by the verse ‘De Herfst is waard geroemt / die schenkt ons Wijn / en Kooren / Met overvloed van [?] / als uyt een vollen [?]’ The illustration of winter, is an Avercamp-like winter scene on ice, with people skating and on sleds. In the right a man is drowning in a hole in the ice. ‘Des Winters heyd men snel / op schaatsen / en met slede / Maar zit men by het Vuur / men is ook welt te vreede.’Amsterdam, J.
