De trap in het Prinsenhof te Delft, waar prins Willem I werd vermoord in 1584 1827 - 1891

Johannes Bosboom's "De trap in het Prinsenhof te Delft, waar prins Willem I werd vermoord in 1584" (1827-1891) is a pencil drawing depicting the staircase in the Prinsenhof in Delft where William the Silent was assassinated in 1584. The artwork is notable for its focus on architectural detail and the use of light and shadow, creating an atmosphere of historical significance. The composition, emphasizing the perspective of the viewer looking up the staircase, evokes the historical event, drawing the viewer into the somber scene of the assassination. This work, now in the Rijksmuseum, is a significant example of Bosboom's skill in capturing the essence of historical spaces.
