Description
Nederlands: In april 1672 verklaarden Engeland en Frankrijk de Nederlandse Republiek de oorlog. Nadat Franse troepen op 12 juni 1672 de Rijn bij Lobith waren overgetrokken stortten de Nederlandse verdedigingslinies ineen. Alleen door een deel van Holland en Brabant onder water te zetten, de zogenaamde Waterlinie, wisten Holland en Zeeland stand te houden. Na de val van het Staats bewind en de machtsovername van stadhouder Willem III, werd met de herovering van de vesting Naarden op 12 september 1673 een groot tegenoffensief ingezet. De succesvolle belegering en inname van de vesting is hier in beeld gebracht door Romeyn de Hooghe (1645-1708). De Hooghe heeft op de plaat verschillende scenes en hoofdpersonen afgebeeld die door verklarende inschriften worden verklaard. In het midden van de plaat zien we Willem III. Hij is omgeven door zijn staf. Voor de prins ligt de burgemeester van Naarden geknield. Rechts op de voorgrond kiezen de Franse troepen de aftocht.; Middenboven een overzichtskaart van Naarden met, in het stadscentrum, het stadswapen. Rechtsboven een gedicht Op de Belegring van Naerden door L.B.v.W.
English: The year 1672 is known as the Year of Disaster (Rampjaar). In April 1672 England and France declared war on the Dutch Republic. After French troops had crossed the River Rhine near Lobith on 12 juni 1672 the Dutch defensive lines crashed. Only by inundating a part of the provinces of Holland and Brabant, the so-called Waterlinie, Holland and Zeeland could withstand the attack. After William III had reached power and the State government had been overthrown, the fortress town Naarden could be recaptured on 12 September 1673 and a counter attack was started. The print by Romeyn de Hooghe (1645-1708) shows the succesful siege and capture of the fortress. De Hooghe depicted various scenes and persons with explanations. In the middle of the print is William III surrounded by his staff. Kneeling in front of the prince is the Mayor of Naarden. On the right the French troops leave the battle field.
