"Het Volksbewind Gevestigd, decoratie op het Amstelveld, 1795" is a colored etching by Dutch artist Noach van der Meer (II), depicting a monument erected on the Amstelveld in Amsterdam in 1795. The artwork portrays a column topped with a hat and two flags, surrounded by a fence adorned with garlands. It symbolizes the establishment of the Batavian Republic, a period of significant political change in the Netherlands. This etching, currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, is a valuable historical record of the public celebration of the new republic.
