This stained-glass window, created around 1618-1620 by an anonymous artist, depicts Prince Maurits in a prayerful pose. The work is a striking example of 17th-century Dutch art, highlighting the importance of religion and the power of the ruling class. The central panel shows the Prince kneeling in prayer, framed by architectural elements and a large coat of arms. The elaborate detail in the window, including the intricate patterns of the stained glass, speaks to the craftsmanship of the era. This work, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, remains a powerful testament to the artistic skill and religious fervor of the Dutch Golden Age.
