The Rapenburg in Leiden — História e Análise

No dia 12 de janeiro de 1807, um navio carregado com 37.000 libras de pólvora explodiu no centro de Leiden. Foi um desastre nacional: 150 pessoas morreram e muitas casas foram destruídas. O rei Luís Napoleão, mostrado à esquerda entre os oficiais da cidade de Leiden, agiu como um verdadeiro pai para seus súditos.

Três dias após a explosão, ele visitou o local e organizou ajuda financeira. Isso o tornou muito popular entre os holandeses.
