Reflections on life at “De Witte Wand”…

Dutch Picture Books

There’s now an online collection of children’s picture books in Dutch, ranging from the years between 1810 to 1950. There are 650 books in the collection, which has been set up by the Koninklijke Bibliotheek , the Openbare Bibliotheek Amsterdam , Bibliotheek Rotterdam , and the Stadsarchief en Athenaeumbibliotheek Deventer.  A fascinating slice of social history.
