Koninklijke attributen 1833 - 1880

"Koninklijke attributen" is an 1833 - 1880 etching by Dutch artist Auguste Numans (1823-1883). The artwork depicts a seated figure in regal attire, possibly a king, adorned with a crown, sword, and a robe. The figure is seated on a throne, with a banner behind them and a globe and other royal symbols at their feet. This print, with its detailed rendering of symbols of power, likely aimed to showcase the grandeur and authority of royalty in the 19th century. The artwork's small size (238 mm x 164 mm) suggests it may have been intended as a personal piece or a study for a larger work.
