This anonymous engraving from 1685 - 1720, "Penning met een embleem en de namen van Zweedse koningen", is a circular emblem featuring a lion lying in front of a mountain landscape. The lion is a symbol of strength and power, while the landscape suggests a tranquil and peaceful setting. The surrounding inscription in Dutch and French lists the names of Swedish kings, dates, and emblems, suggesting this piece is a commemorative or heraldic work. It is likely that the work was created to celebrate the Swedish monarchy and its lineage.
