This 1680 engraving by Ludovicus Salm depicts Vincent Joachim Hahn, a prominent figure in Danish history, in a highly symbolic portrait. The central image of Hahn is framed by a laurel wreath, surrounded by allegorical figures, including a warrior, a woman with a crescent moon on her head, and cherubs holding a coat of arms. The elaborate ornamentation at the bottom includes weapons, a globe, and a scroll with Latin inscription, referencing Hahn's achievements. The composition reflects the Baroque style popular in the 17th century, emphasizing dramatic contrasts and symbolism.
