EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the magnificent artwork titled "Allegory Peace under Stadholder Willem II Peace Time under Stadholder William II". Painted by Adriaen van Nieulandt in 1650, this masterpiece is a visual representation of peace and harmony during the reign of Stadholder William II. In the center of the painting, we see the grand triumphal car of Eendracht being pulled by four virgins representing Justice, Fierheid (Pride), Justice, and Caution. The car carries personifications of Freedom, Religion, Victoria, the Republic of the United Netherlands, and even features a majestic Dutch Lion. Musicians can be seen walking alongside it on its journey. Awaiting its arrival are goddesses Minerva, Venus, and Juno who symbolize wisdom, love, and power respectively. On the right side of the painting stands War captivated by various weapons and armor pieces while holding a drum and banner. The river gods Scheldt and Meuse are depicted on one side while Rhine and IJ river gods grace the lower left corner. Atop left corner Vrede (Peace) presents an olive branch to Prince William II as a gesture of peace for both him and his nation. Adding to this enchanting scene are putti flying in mid-air along with symbols like Faam (Fame) and Abundance. Lastly but not leastly is a self-portrait tucked away on far right showcasing van Nieulandt's artistic prowess. This remarkable piece captures not only historical significance but also serves as an allegorical representation celebrating peace during that era.
