"Coriolanus wijst de verzoeken van het Romeinse volk af" is an etching by Dutch artist Charles de La Haye, created between 1651 and 1691. The artwork depicts a scene from Shakespeare's play *Coriolanus* where the titular character, a Roman general, refuses the pleas of the Roman people. The etching showcases de La Haye's masterful skill in rendering intricate details and conveying the dramatic tension of the scene. The composition is dynamic, with the figures arranged in a compelling arrangement that emphasizes Coriolanus's resolute stance. This etching, currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, is a valuable example of Dutch Baroque art, offering a glimpse into the visual culture of the 17th century.
