Vignet met historische gebeurtenissen rondom Frederik III 1751

This etching by Dutch artist Simon Fokke, created in 1751, is a vignette depicting historical events surrounding Frederik III. The scene, framed by an elaborate Rococo-style border, showcases a group of figures in a garden setting with a building in the background, a clear example of the Rococo fascination with nature and the outdoors. The etching's small size, just 119 mm by 132 mm, suggests it was likely intended for a private collection or publication. The inscription "FIN" and the year "1751" at the bottom of the vignette indicate its purpose as a final illustration in a larger series. The artwork is housed in the Rijksmuseum, one of the leading art museums in the Netherlands.
