"Prins Jan Willem Friso verdrinkt bij Moerdijk" (Prince John William Friso drowns at Moerdijk) is an etching created by the Dutch artist Simon Fokke in 1758. The artwork depicts the tragic drowning of Prince John William Friso in 1711. The scene portrays a small boat capsizing in rough waters with figures struggling to stay afloat. This etching, now part of the Rijksmuseum collection, is a poignant reminder of the historical event and Fokke's masterful depiction of human vulnerability in the face of nature's fury.
