This engraving, "Wapen van Denemarken," was created by Reinier Vinkeles in 1751-1816, and it depicts the coat of arms of Denmark. The circular design showcases a crowned shield with a cross, surrounded by the Latin phrase "CONSULATUS REGIS DANIAE AMISTELIADAMI." The two figures holding the shield, likely representing supporters, further emphasize the symbolic nature of this artwork. This piece, housed at the Rijksmuseum, exemplifies the artistic practice of heraldic representation in the 18th century.
