This anonymous broadside, created around 1814, depicts nine scenes from Dutch history between 1813 and 1814. Each scene is accompanied by a caption in Dutch, describing the events. These images capture the return of the House of Orange to power after the Napoleonic Wars, a pivotal moment for the Netherlands. The broadside's vibrant colors and simple style were likely intended to appeal to a wide audience, serving as a visual record of these important events. This broadside is a rare glimpse into the immediate response to the changing political landscape of the time.
