1703 History of Netherlands 80 Years War Dutch Hooft Philip II of Spain Portrait

 

Pieter Hooft was a 17th-century Dutch writer known for both his histories and his plays. While his plays outnumber his other works, his ‘History of the Netherlands’ is perhaps the most thorough 17th-century history of Holland. This enormous work focuses heavily on the Eighty Years’ War and the Dutch conflicts with Spain. Note the inclusion of impressive, full-page engraved portraits including those of:

  • Philip II of Spain
  • Antoine Perrenot de Granvelle
  • Hendrik van Brederode
  • Margaret of Parma
  • Louis, Prince of Nassau
  • Franciscus Baldez
  • John of Austria
  • Matthias I, Holy Roman Emperor
  • Alexander Farnese, Duke of Parma
