On 20 August 1672 they were assassinated by their political opponents. Johan had been the most powerful man in the Republic for close to twenty years, steadfastly supported by his brother Cornelis. But they were held responsible for
everything that went wrong in the year 1672, known as the ‘Year of Disaster’.
