"Vier episodes uit de vaderlandse geschiedenis" (Four episodes from Dutch history) is a set of four engravings by Dutch artist Simon Fokke, created between 1722 and 1784. The artwork depicts four different scenes from Dutch history, each framed individually and showcasing a mix of architecture, landscape, and figures. The etchings are executed in a fine, detailed style, characteristic of Fokke’s work, and offer a glimpse into the artist's fascination with historical events and their visual representation. This set of engravings, currently housed at the Rijksmuseum, provides a valuable insight into Dutch history and art during the 18th century.
