Frans de Haes's *Gedicht op het zwaard waarmee Johan van Oldenbarnevelt in 1619 zou zijn onthoofd* (1743-1745) is a handwritten poem written in Dutch, lamenting the execution of Johan van Oldenbarnevelt. The poem is likely a copy of an original text, as it is written in a neat and legible script, possibly for archival purposes. The handwriting style is characteristic of the 18th century and reflects the Dutch calligraphic tradition. While the specific text is not visible in the image, the artwork serves as a historical document and a reflection of the political and social climate of the time.
