This is a "Vignet met een wapen met een kroon" ("vignette with a coat of arms with a crown") by Isaac Vincentsz. van der Vinne, a Dutch engraver who was born in 1665 and died in 1740. It is a small-scale engraving from the 17th or 18th century. This type of vignette was often used as a decorative element in books or other publications. It shows a shield surmounted by a crown, which could be a symbol of royalty or authority. This particular vignette is a blank template which would have been filled in with the specific details of the individual or family whose coat of arms it was meant to depict.
