This anonymous engraving, *Vertoning van De Lisbloem (Mechelen)*, was created in 1561-1562. It depicts a scene of a woman, possibly the Virgin Mary, being crowned by an angel while a bearded man with a staff looks on. The image is framed within a decorative archway and the inscription at the bottom indicates it was created for the city of Mechelen. The intricate details and dramatic composition are typical of 16th-century Northern Renaissance engravings.
