Handelsetiket met een distel en een kroon c. 1681 - 1740

This small-scale engraving by Isaac Vincentsz. van der Vinne, dated between 1681 and 1740, showcases a stylized thistle plant, likely intended as a heraldic symbol. The thistle is surrounded by a decorative oval frame and a scroll-like crown, typical of late 17th and 18th-century Dutch decorative art. The engraved detail emphasizes the prickly nature of the thistle, suggesting its symbolic role as a protector. This engraving is a fine example of Van der Vinne's skilled work in the realm of botanical and heraldic imagery.
