Schouburgh der Nederlandse veranderingen : geopent in ses tooneelen, waer op de wisselbeurten des Vereenigde Staets door den Fransen oorlog gebrouwen : in historieele sinnebeelden vertoont en beschreven zijn
Schouburgh der Nederlandse veranderingen is a 1674 Dutch allegorical emblem book published in Amsterdam by its author Romeyn de Hooghe, a print designer and satirist, recounting the Dutch Republic's upheavals during the French war in six scenes for a Dutch reading public. Its pictures are dense etchings crowded with figures, classical gods, winged putti, clouds, armour and battle debris, with strong dark-light contrast that a designer could draw on for baroque allegory, crowd composition and layered narrative staging.
