"Inname van Den Briel door de watergeuzen, 1572" (The Taking of Brielle by the Water Geuzen, 1572) is a 17th-century print by an anonymous artist that depicts the capture of the city of Brielle by the Water Geuzen, a group of Dutch Protestant rebels, from Spanish control in 1572. The print shows a detailed view of the city of Brielle with ships sailing towards it and troops fighting on land.
