Allegory on the deceitful peace proposals by Spain, 1598. Title print on a pamphlet entitled: Copie van seker Refereyn by de overheerde Nederlantsche Provintien aen Hollant gheschreven / beroerende den Vrede. Met oock der Hollanders antwoorde rijms-wyse daer by ghevoecht. A Spanish Dutchman with two faces offers the Dutchman an olive branch. On the right a small performance in which Anneken van den Hove is buried alive in Brussels (1597). On the left the 'map' of the Channel. It shows the Spanish Armada trying to invade England in 1588. At the top two medallions with edge writings in Latin and Dutch. Left: a Spaniard, most likely King Philip II, tries to catch the Dutch lion (seen from the rope he is holding in his other hand). Right: the lion is tied with that rope around its neck. Philip II does this at the behest of the Pope (ic do if my is ordered). This is probably to represent the then Pope Gregory XIII or his predecessor Pius V, who was known for suppressing the Reformation. Title print of an 8-page pamphlet in Dutch.
