Allegory on True Patriotism, 1788, Mathias de Sallieth, 1788 Canvas Print

Extensive allegory on the occasion of the restoration of stadholder Willem V in 1788. In an obelisk, the prince (in Roman costume) receives from the Dutch lion the command staff, on the right his wife and children, also in classic robes. Central to the monument is the Dutch Virgin. In the clouds Mercury, Prudence, Fame and Justice. On the left side of the stairs are seven men who symbolize the provinces, for that the people who watch. On the right, Prussia chases away the last patriots and Pride, Envy and Greed are defeated by a ferocious man with lightning bolts (a Divine plague). At the front of the arms of the Prince and Princess of Orange.
