專家說明

During the Eighty Years' War (1568-1648) the Dutch started using the image of the Dutch Maiden seated in a closed garden holding a spear with a freedom hat as a symbol in their battle against the Spanish. The garden symbolizing the piece of land that they had fought free from the Spanish and the spear with freedom hat symbolizing their willingness to keep on fighting to protect this freedom. Overtime the symbol was adapted and used for several purposes. In the late 18th century the Patriots started using the image of a lion with spear and freedom hat for their struggle against the powers of The Hague.
