"Hier ziet men 't Krijgs rumoer, van Vaandrik en tamboer" (Here you see the war's commotion, of the ensign and drummer) is an engraving by Johan Noman, created sometime between 1806 and 1830. The artwork, now housed at the Rijksmuseum, depicts three soldiers, one holding a flag, while the other two beat drums. The detailed illustration is framed by a decorative border of floral motifs and cherubs, adding a touch of grace to the otherwise war-torn scene. This image is part of a larger series of engravings created by Noman, providing glimpses into the military life of the time. The artwork's title, along with its detailed depiction of the soldiers and their actions, offer valuable insight into the visual culture of the early 19th century in the Netherlands.
