Echoes of Rebellion: The Fall of Claudius Paulus and Julius Civilis, Otto van Veen, 1600 - 1613 - Video

In 1613, the Dutch parliament (States General) commissioned Otto van Veen to paint twelve paintings depicting the revolt of the Batavians against the Romans in AD 69 and 70. These were displayed in Binnenhof, the central government building in The Hague. In the early years of the Dutch Republic, many compared their own revolt against Spain to the Batavian uprising. The beheading of Julius Paulus and the capture of Claudius Civilis. The decapitated body of Julius Paulus lies on the floor between some Roman soldiers, on the left the executioner stores his ax. In the foreground Claudius Civilis is being led away by soldiers. First representation in a series of twelve scenes of the uprising of the Batavians against the Romans, purchased by the States General in 1613.
