This 18th-century etching by Jan Punt, titled *Lijkstatie van Willem IV, 1752, plaat 3*, depicts a procession of mounted figures, likely part of the funeral cortege for Willem IV, Stadtholder of the Netherlands. The intricate detail of the horses and riders, presented in a realistic style, highlights Punt's skill as a printmaker. The artwork, currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, provides a glimpse into the ceremonial aspects of 18th-century Dutch society and the artistic conventions of the time.
