The "Linen Shirt, Presumably Worn by Henry Casimir I during the Siege of a Fort at Hulst in 1640" is an anonymous work of art on display at the Rijksmuseum. Dating back to before 1640, this artwork is a tattered linen shirt believed to have been worn by Henry Casimir I, Prince of Nassau-Dietz, during the Siege of Hulst in 1640. This historically significant garment is a poignant reminder of the hardships faced by soldiers during the Thirty Years' War and offers a glimpse into the everyday attire of a prominent figure of the time. The shirt's condition, with its tears and stains, serves as a testament to its age and the wear and tear it has endured.
