‘HIER ROT EEN KRENG, HET HOOFD VAN MOORDENAARS EN FIELEN… (JOOST VAN DEN VONDEL)’

– A Dutch wartime propaganda print featuring an anti-Nazi poem by Joost van den Vondel, condemning tyranny and violence. The text, written in archaic Dutch, denounces an unnamed tyrant, presumably Hitler, describing his cruelty, destruction, and ultimate demise. The illustration at the top depicts a German helmet impaled on a wooden cross, a human skull, and a broken swastika, symbolizing the downfall of the Nazi regime. This piece reflects the Dutch resistance’s literary and artistic efforts to denounce the occupiers and inspire national pride.
