This 1617 broadside depicts the assassination of Concino Concini, Marquis d’Ancre, a powerful Italian figure in the French court. The scene shows Concini's final moments, surrounded by his attackers, and a caption at the bottom notes that he was slain on April 24, 1617, in Paris, France. This work, currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, is a rare example of an early 17th-century print documenting a significant event in European history.
