DescriptionGrutte Pier (Pier Gerlofs Donia), 1622, book illustration.JPG
English: Image from a 1622, non-copyrighted historical book. It shows
en:Pier Gerlofs Donia, or
en:Grutte Pier, a
en:Frisianen:freedom fighter,
en:rebel and
en:folk hero. It was made over a hundred years after the man depicted in it died, so on its historical accuracy there might be some discussion (although it may be an accurate painting of the man, he isn't wearing 16th-century clothes, but is dressed in 17th-century clothing).
