The Dairy Cow - The Dutch Provinces, Revolting against Spanish King Philip II, Are Led by Prince William of Orange
EDITORS COMMENTS
is an intriguing and humorous 17th-century oil painting that offers a unique perspective on the historical events of the Dutch Revolt against Spanish rule. The anonymous artist, known as Anon, masterfully captures the spirit of resistance and the unexpected alliances that emerged during this turbulent period. The painting depicts a dairy cow, which once represented the Low Countries under Spanish rule, with King Philip II riding on its back, symbolizing his dominance. However, the scene shifts as Queen Elizabeth I of England is shown feeding the cow, signifying her support and aid to the Dutch provinces in their struggle for independence. Prince William of Orange, the Count of Nassau, is depicted milking the cow, symbolizing the financial gains that could be made from the rebellion. The inscription of the painting adds to its intrigue, with the first verse suggesting that the cow once represented Flanders and was content under Spanish rule, but now, under the Dutch Revolt, it is no longer content. The second verse describes Queen Elizabeth I as a source of help in the Dutch provinces' distress, while the third verse humorously depicts Prince William of Orange milking the cow while holding its tail, with the cow defecating in his hand. The painting's use of animals as symbols of political power and the unexpected alliances that emerge during times of conflict make it a fascinating piece of historical art. The oil on panel technique used by the anonymous artist adds depth and texture to the painting, making it a must-see for anyone interested in European history or art. Whether viewed in a gallery or art center, this painting offers a unique and entertaining perspective on a significant historical event.
