"Wapenschild geflankeerd door allegorische figuren" is an engraving by Jacob Folkema depicting a coat of arms flanked by two allegorical figures. The central coat of arms features a crowned shield with three fishes, possibly symbolizing a family crest. On the left, a female figure holds a book and sits in a seated posture, while on the right a male figure holds a spear and sits in a similar pose. The engraving likely depicts a scene of power and family lineage. This work is an example of Dutch engraving from the 18th century, and is currently located in the Rijksmuseum.
