This 1795 print by Noach van der Meer depicts a symbolic monument commemorating the abolition of the Stadholderate in the Dutch Republic. The monument features a pyramidal structure topped with a sphere, signifying the decline of power. At its base, two figures destroy a tree, representing the overthrow of the Stadholder's authority. This artwork, housed in the Rijksmuseum, offers a visual testament to a pivotal moment in Dutch history.
