"Het laatste gebed van Johan van Oldenbarnevelt", painted by Simon Opzoomer between 1840 and 1878, portrays the final moments of Johan van Oldenbarnevelt, a Dutch statesman, before his execution in 1619. The painting is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum and depicts Oldenbarnevelt kneeling in prayer, surrounded by figures who appear to be clergymen. Opzoomer's work captures the dramatic scene with meticulous detail, highlighting the solemnity of the moment through the use of chiaroscuro and the figures' somber expressions. This historical painting is a testament to the enduring impact of Oldenbarnevelt's life and death on Dutch history.
