Tekstblad bij de allegorie op de Vrede van Nijmegen, 1678 1678

This artwork is a text page from a book, published in 1678 by artist D. van der Ley. The page is a printed text, with a decorative initial "O" at the beginning of the first paragraph. This ornate letter "O" is a common feature in Dutch printing of the 17th century. The text is written in Dutch, likely about the Peace of Nijmegen which was signed in 1678. This piece is a fine example of Dutch typography and printing in the 17th century.
