This anonymous Dutch print from 1597-1599, currently held in the Rijksmuseum, depicts a scene of military defeat. The upper half of the print features a battle scene with the Spanish army in retreat, led by Maurice of Nassau, Prince of Orange. The bottom half of the print features a large text block, with a smaller scene above, that recounts the losses suffered by the Spaniards during their retreat. The print is a powerful reminder of the political and military conflicts of the time.
