EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning oil painting, titled 'The Siege of Rhenen' by the Master of Rhenen, captures the intensity and chaos of a pivotal moment in Dutch history. Dating from the late 15th or early 16th century, the artwork depicts the attack on the city of Rhenen, which was besieged by the troops of John II, Duke of Cleves, led by Guy of the Kindermaker. The city, located in the Utrecht province of the Netherlands, is shown with its impressive city walls and defensive gates under relentless assault. The background is filled with the bustling activity of soldiers preparing for battle, some indoors, others outdoors, and even atop the city walls. The color palette is rich and vibrant, with deep blues, greens, and reds bringing the scene to life. The painting's intricate details reveal the mastery of the artist, known as the Master of Rhenen or Master of the Saint Elizabeth Panels. This historic artwork, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time of conflict and courage in the Low Countries.
