It depicts Willem I and Maurits, Princes of Orange, seated in a central position, with a banner above them that reads "Teatro Belgico di Gregorio Leti". The princes are surrounded by a group of men, symbolizing the strength and unity of the Dutch Republic. The lower part of the composition features seven shields, representing the seven provinces of the Netherlands. This artwork, titled "Allegorische voorstelling met prinsen van Oranje Willem I en Maurits," can be found in the Rijksmuseum. It is a prime example of Dutch 17th-century art, demonstrating the pride and national identity of the Dutch people during this period.
