François Nicolas Barthélemy Dequevauviller created this print titled 'Vierdaagse zeeslag, 1666' sometime between 1745 and 1807, capturing a naval battle from nearly a century prior. This work invites us to consider the narratives of maritime conflict and national identity. At its center, the print depicts the clash between English and Dutch naval forces, amidst billowing smoke and turbulent waters. What stories do we tell ourselves about heroism and sacrifice in times of war, and whose voices are amplified or silenced in these narratives? Dequevauviller’s print encourages us to reflect on how historical events are remembered and represented, and the complex ways in which notions of national identity are constructed and reinforced through art.
