About this work
From the mouth of a large fish come smaller fish, which in turn spit out even smaller fish towards a group of tritons. On the wooden quay and on the city gate, fishermen, including Van Oldenbarnevelt. In the background, Friesland and the city of Utrecht. Satire on Van Oldenbarnevelt, De Groot, Hogerbeets, Ledenberg, and Moersbergen. Around the print, a poem in six columns and an explanation of the letters A-V.
