This 1787 etching by Mathias de Sallieth depicts the arrest of Wilhelmina of Orange, also known as Princess of Orange, at the Goejanverwellesluis lock in the Netherlands. The scene captures the princess's arrest, with a group of individuals gathered around her, while others observe from a distance. The detailed depiction of the interior, including the tiled floor and exposed ceiling beams, adds to the historical significance of the artwork. The artwork is a valuable historical document for understanding the events of 18th-century Dutch history.
