Jacobus Buys' "Karel V, Duits keizer, ontvangt de sleutels van de poorten en de roede van justitie van Utrecht" depicts a historical event from the 16th century, where the Holy Roman Emperor Charles V accepts the keys to the city of Utrecht. The artwork, created between 1787 and 1789, is a detailed drawing highlighting the formal surrender of the city to the Emperor. The composition showcases the power dynamics through the figure of Charles V, who stands tall as he receives the symbols of authority from a kneeling figure representing the city. The artwork is housed at the Rijksmuseum, a renowned art museum in Amsterdam, Netherlands.
