"Scènes uit het leven van de Batavieren" is a lithograph by Gerardus Johannes Bos created before 1896. This historical illustration depicts scenes from the lives of the Batavi, an ancient Germanic tribe who lived in the region that is now the Netherlands. The artwork is divided into eight sections, each portraying a different aspect of their culture, including their weapons, daily life, and religious practices. This detailed piece, now housed at the Rijksmuseum, provides valuable insight into the Batavi's way of life and is a testament to Bos's meticulous historical research.
