Titelprent voor de serie Tocht van Karel V naar Tunis 1570 - 1574

This title page for the series "Tocht van Karel V naar Tunis" (Journey of Charles V to Tunis) was created by Frans Hogenberg between 1570 and 1574. Hogenberg, born in 1540 and died in 1590, was a renowned Dutch engraver and mapmaker. The print depicts a decorative frame surrounding a text detailing the journey of Emperor Charles V to Tunis in 1535. It is an example of a highly detailed and ornately framed title page, characteristic of Hogenberg's works, combining artistic skill with historical narratives. The work, which is now held at the Rijksmuseum, measures 238 mm in height and 330 mm in width.
