This anonymous engraving, *Moord te Oudewater, 1575*, depicts the 1575 massacre in Oudewater, Netherlands. The scene is chaotic, with buildings burning in the background and numerous figures scattered across the street. The foreground features both the dead and those fleeing the violence. Created between 1613 and 1615, this work is a powerful visual representation of the brutality of religious conflict during the Dutch Revolt. The engraving can be viewed at the Rijksmuseum.
