EDITORS COMMENTS
The print captures a significant moment in history, showcasing two distinct scenes on one plate. The top portion portrays Claudius Civilis and Petilius Cerialis engaged in intense negotiations on a demolished bridge, symbolizing their efforts to find common ground amidst conflict. This historical event took place between 69-70 AD and is marked by the satisfaction of Claudius Civilis with the Romans. In contrast, the bottom part of the print depicts Bishop Willibrord preaching against idolatry amidst a crowd of bystanders. His powerful words draw attention to a pagan sacrifice ceremony, emphasizing his commitment to spreading Christianity and combating ancient beliefs. Willibrord was an influential figure as both the apostle of Frisia and archbishop of Utrecht during this time period around 700 AD. The artist behind this illustration is Simon Fokke from Amsterdam, who created it between 1756-1758 using paper and etching techniques. Measuring at approximately 144 mm in height and 86 mm in width, this intricate piece showcases Fokke's talent for capturing historical events with great detail. This print from the Liszt Collection offers viewers a glimpse into pivotal moments that shaped national history while highlighting key figures such as Claudius Civilis, Petilius Cerialis, and Willibrord. It serves as a reminder of our past struggles for peace and religious freedom while celebrating those who fought for unity and progress.
