This 1800 engraving by Daniël Veelwaard, titled "Buste van Joost van den Vondel omringd met attributen, op een doek," depicts a bust of Dutch poet Joost van den Vondel surrounded by various objects, including a lyre, a wreath, and other theatrical symbols. It is a work of neoclassical style, evident in the symmetry and the emphasis on the human form. The text at the bottom, "VERNIEUWD TOONEEL-GORDIJN IN DEN AMSTELDAMSCHEN SCHOUWBURG," suggests that this was originally a curtain design for the Amsterdam theater. This artwork is housed in the Rijksmuseum.
