About the Item

These three original antique prints provide captivating glimpses into the Dutch West Indies, once a part of an educational series designed for school children. Numbered 151 to 153, they belong to a set of 170 prints meant to educate young minds about diverse subjects. The prints offer vivid portrayals of specific locales: "St. Martin. Back Street. Great Bay. Philipsburg. Hoofdplaats van St. Martin," "Landingsplaats op St. Eutstatius," and "Fort Landing op Saba." Each print captures unique scenes, likely illustrating the daily life, landscapes, or notable landmarks of these Dutch West Indian territories. Originally crafted as educational tools, these prints hold historical significance, serving as windows into the past for modern-day observers. They represent a curated collection of visual narratives, providing insights into the culture, geography, and societal aspects of these regions. While once intended for educational purposes, these prints now stand as valuable artifacts, offering both historical insights and visual intrigue for collectors, historians, or enthusiasts keen on exploring the rich heritage of the Dutch West Indies. The plates issued by the company 'Kleynenberg' were intended to depict the living conditions in our former colonies. This was accomplished through enlarged images derived from then already aged photographs or glass slides."
