EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a pivotal moment in history - the Batavians defeating the Romans on the Rhine. The scene depicts the intense battle unfolding in the foreground, with two defeated Roman soldiers and a fallen horse serving as reminders of their failed conquest. Behind them, we witness the advancing armies of the Batavians, determined to defend their land against foreign rule. Painted by Otto van Veen between 1600 and 1613, this panel is part of a series of twelve scenes depicting the rebellion of the Batavians against Roman forces. Its historical significance led to its acquisition by the States General in 1613. The composition skillfully portrays both sides of this conflict - showcasing not only the bravery and resilience of the Batavian warriors but also highlighting Rome's formidable military might. The presence of Binnenhof, an iconic location along with River Rhine adds depth to this artwork. Through vibrant oil paints, Van Veen brings life to every detail, capturing emotions ranging from determination to despair. This print serves as a powerful reminder that even against seemingly insurmountable odds, unity and unwavering spirit can lead to victory. Whether you are an art enthusiast or a history buff, this remarkable piece offers an immersive experience into one chapter of ancient warfare that forever altered Europe's course.
