This title page for a 1793 account of the monuments of the Nordic countries by artist Georg Haas (1756-1817) depicts two medallions, one showing a crowned prince and princess and the other a musical instrument, with a signature of the artist. The artwork exemplifies the decorative and informative nature of title pages in 18th century publications. The text, which refers to a "Regnskab" (account) for monuments in the Nordic region, suggests the publication's focus on historical and cultural preservation.
