This 1752 title page by Daniel Joannes Langeweg commemorates the funeral procession of Willem IV, Prince of Orange and Nassau. The Dutch text in decorative lettering describes the event with an elaborate baroque-style ornament centered below. The title page is part of an eight-page publication, created by Langeweg who was both a book and map seller in the Hague. The text at the bottom notes it was printed with a privilege from the states of Holland and West Friesland, highlighting its official and historical significance.
