About the work

In the museum's own words — in Dutch

Een muis en een stier staan tegenover elkaar. De fabel beschrijft hoe een muis een stier in zijn poot bijt en zich dan verbergt in zijn holletje. De moraal van het verhaal leert dat elke machthebber door de schranderheid van een enkele onderdaan kan worden gehinderd.
