"Kroning van een Magistraat" (Coronation of a Magistrate), a drawing by Alessandro Maganza (1556-1630), depicts a ceremonial scene with a magistrate seated on a throne, surrounded by figures in various poses. The drawing, completed between 1605 and 1615, showcases Maganza's masterful use of pen and brown wash, creating a dynamic and expressive composition. The use of perspective and architectural details provides a sense of depth and grandeur to the scene, further emphasizing the importance of the event. Today, the artwork is held in the Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam, Netherlands.
