作品描述
This painting by Jan Asselijn depicts the catastrophic breach of the St. Anthonisdijk dike in 1651, a significant event during the St. Peter's Flood. It captures the chaos and human struggle as water inundates the low-lying areas of Watergraafsmeer, a region in the Netherlands. The artwork is housed in the Amsterdam Museum, offering a vivid historical account of one of the country's most devastating floods.
