This etching by Dutch artist Simon Fokke depicts a historical event: the negotiation between representatives of Amsterdam and Count Willem Frederik van Nassau in 1650. The scene takes place at Hofstede Welna on the Amstel River and shows the figures of the representatives as they meet, surrounded by their retinues and a boat docked nearby. This detailed portrayal of the event reflects the historical context of 18th-century Dutch art.
