This hand-colored woodcut is by Eduard Vermorcken, 1801-1871. It was given to Willy's Mother, Marianna, who passed away last year, by his Father, Han, who was my Father's Brother, many years ago. So it is a family heirloom, of which I have very very few, giving it much more meaning.
There is a story written on the back; unfortunately, I cannot read Dutch very well (although I do speak it still), so I will have to have it translated.
