"Lied ter ere van de verovering van 's-Hertogenbosch door Frederik Hendrik, 1629" is a 1629 broadside poem by Jan van der Veen, celebrating the capture of 's-Hertogenbosch by Frederick Henry in 1629. The poem consists of nine stanzas printed in black ink in a rectangular format within a decorative border, with the title "Der Batavische Huilofs-Rey" at the top. The artwork is part of a genre of printed texts, often celebrating important events, battles, or political figures. The small size of the artwork and the printed format suggest it was intended for personal enjoyment or as a collectible item.
