Oranje verjaagd uit België, 1830 1830 - 1831

This satirical print, "Oranje verjaagd uit België, 1830", depicts the expulsion of the Dutch king from Belgium. The artwork, created anonymously in 1830-31, features two fleeing figures representing the Dutch king and his son, chased by a throng of Belgians wielding weapons and flags. The inscription "c'est fini" (it's finished) and the image of the Dutch fleeing with cannonballs at their feet symbolize the end of Dutch rule. This piece is a significant artifact capturing the historical events of the Belgian Revolution, offering a glimpse into the public opinion and sentiment of the time.
