This drawing by Simon Fokke, titled "Hollandse kooplieden overhandigen prinses Anna een klaagschrift over de Engelse aanvallen," depicts a scene from 1758 where Dutch merchants present a petition to Princess Anna about English attacks. This historical event, rendered with remarkable detail in Fokke's characteristic style, offers a glimpse into 18th-century Dutch society and the tensions between the Netherlands and England. The artwork is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam.
