The battle was a significant defeat for the rebels against Spanish Habsburg rule. The Battle of the Gete, or the Battle of Jodoigne, fought on October 19, 1568, was part of the Eighty Years' War, marking an early conflict in the Dutch Revolt against Spanish rule. The clash occurred near the towns of Jodoigne and Tienen (Tirlemont), by the Gete River. The rearguard of Prince William of Orange's army was defeated by the forces of the Duke of Alba. The battle is significant as it resulted in a setback for the Prince of Orange, forcing him to abandon his campaign to invade the Habsburg Netherlands. The artwork related to this event was created by Johann Wilhelm Baur, a renowned artist for his depictions of historical scenes. This text provides details of the key locations and figures involved in the Battle of Oosterweel, which was one of the early skirmishes of the Dutch Revolt and is noted for the severe defeat and harsh treatment of the rebel Geuzen: Battle at Oosterweel, under the rule of Margaretha of Parma, 1567.
