In the background the attacks on Prins Maurits in 1594 by Michien Renichon or Pierre du Four and in 1598 by Pieter Panne. Top separate cartouches with small scenes with: the tyranny under the duke of Alva, a mouse gnaws the ropes with which the Dutch lion is bound to the column of the Inquisition, the free Dutch lion no longer wants to change the murder of Willem van Orange in 1584 and the fake peace proposals to Queen Elizabeth I with 1588 Spanish Armada in the background.
