The Batavians Defeating the Romans on the Rhine — História e Análise

Em 1613, o parlamento holandês (Estados Gerais) comissionou Otto van Veen para pintar doze quadros retratando a revolta dos Batávios contra os romanos em 69 e 70 d.C. Estas obras foram exibidas no Binnenhof, o edifício central do governo em Haia. Nos primeiros anos da República Holandesa, muitos compararam sua própria revolta contra a Espanha com a insurreição batávia.
