The Batavians Defeating the Romans on the Rhine — Storia e analisi

Nel 1613, il parlamento olandese (Stati Generali) commissionò a Otto van Veen di dipingere dodici opere che rappresentavano la rivolta dei Batavi contro i Romani nel 69 e 70 d.C. Questi dipinti furono esposti nel Binnenhof, l'edificio centrale del governo dell'Aia. Nei primi anni della Repubblica Olandese, molti paragonarono la propria rivolta contro la Spagna all'insurrezione batava.
