Waar 't hart voor Land en Koning slaat, / Is ieder burger steeds soldaat. / Waar elk voor 't vaderland wil strijden, / Ziet zich ook elk voor 't jok bevrijden 1832 - 1850

The print, "Waar 't hart voor Land en Koning slaat," by Theodorus Johannes Wijnhoven-Hendriksen, is a series of twelve scenes depicting Dutch military life in the 19th century. Created between 1832-1850, this wood-engraving showcases the artist's skilled use of line and detail to portray the routines and symbolism of Dutch soldiery. This work, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, offers a glimpse into the visual culture and societal values surrounding the Dutch military during this period. The print's detailed imagery and accompanying text provide valuable insights into the historical context and visual aesthetics of 19th-century Netherlands.
